The Department of Electrical and Com-puter Engineering offers ABET accredited
Bachelor of Science degrees in Electrical Engineering and in Computer Engineering.
Although many courses are common to both programs, there are significant
differences between the graduation requirements for electrical engineering
and for computer engineering. Students are advised to decide early in their
program of study which major they intend to pursue. The Bachelor of Science
degree programs are also offered to students at the Lancaster University
Center via distance learning. The department also offers a master's degree
in engineering with emphasis in electrical engineering. See master's
program for more detailed information.
The faculty members have a wide range of teaching and industrial experience and are academically well-qualified engineers. Their backgrounds include research accomplishments, practice in industry, consulting work, and extensive teaching experience.
Excellent facilities are housed in the Engineering East Building. A 52,000
square-foot engineering building addition provides additional classroom
space, faculty offices, and laboratories for microprocessors and digital
systems, electronics, computer hardware and software design development,
optical communications, digital control/robotics, microwaves, special projects,
and power systems.
It is the policy of the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department that every student see his/her assigned adviser at least once during the academic year. Therefore, students must complete mandatory advising with a faculty member at least once during each academic year by the established deadline (usually around the end of April). Students who fail to do so will be prevented from participating in the registration process prior to the start of classes the following academic year.
An accelerated B.S./M.S. program, with options in electrical and mechanical engineering, is offered to ME and EE students as a streamlined curriculum that may be used by qualified students to attain the bachelor of science and master of science degrees simultaneously. Undergraduate EE and ME students in their senior year are eligible to be admitted into this program if they have a GPA of at least 3.0 in the EE or ME core courses, complete the G.E. requirements the semester they start the accelerated program or before, and take the GRE examination. An application and letter of intent should be filed with the EE option graduate program coordinator. A plan of study should be developed in consultation with the graduate program coordinator. The student must complete all G.E. requirements prior to taking any 200-level coursework. See master's program for more detailed information.
