Electrical engineering, the largest of the engineering
fields, is the application of mathematics, sciences, and electrical and
electronic technologies to the needs of society. This broad and diverse
discipline touches almost every aspect of people's lives and occupations, from
communication systems such as cellular phones, radio, television, and the
Internet to computer systems, including personal computers, and the hidden
processors that control automobiles and household appliances.
The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
