Electrical and Computer Engineering
Welcome
The Klipsch School of Electrical and Computer Engineering prepares students for careers where they can apply their broad spectrum of knowledge in electronics and computing to solving problems, improving our life styles, and creating new knowledge. Our graduates can be found in private industry, government service, and research laboratories throughout the United States and many other countries. The Klipsch School offers BS, MS, and PhD degrees. We also participate in the Systems Engineering Certificate Program for students with a BS degree. Students are eligible to participate in co-op and intern programs or become research assistants to give real-world experience in addition to the classroom and laboratory education.
The Klipsch School is large enough to give students the experiences that will be found in major research universities but small enough to have close interaction with the faculty and your peers. The average undergraduate class has 28 students while the average graduate class has 14 students.
Outside the classroom, students have clubs and service activities to choose from. More information can be found on the ECE organizations page.
Information to guide you through the ECE academic programs can be found on the Academics pages.
Off-campus organizations can arrange a visit or arrange to have us visit to learn more about our programs. Please contact us about these opportunities.
Want to Know More About Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering?
Electrical engineers can be found working on systems and devices that use electricity to perform a task or convey information. Our graduates are prepared to make technical contributions to society in areas such as telecommunications, information processing, consumer electronics, aerospace electronics, energy production and transmission, computing hardware and software, defense, and microelectronics.
Computer engineers use hardware and software to work with computers as well as the computing capabilities embedded in a whole range of devices from cell phones to airplane wings. Our graduates make technical contributions in areas such as computer architecture design, computer-based controllers for devices, specialized software for modeling and analysis, user interfaces to systems, and special circuits that use microcontrollers to realize a functional design.
