ماذا سوف أتعلم؟
The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering offers a B.S. degree in electrical and computer engineering. The program serves current students, industry, the University, and the citizens of the state of Washington by preparing students to find pragmatic engineering solutions to problems, while understanding the impact of their solutions in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context. The educational experience emphasizes lab based experiential learning, teamwork, communication, and critical thinking, while the program curriculum provides current, practical engineering knowledge built on a sound mathematical and science background. The Electrical and Computer Engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET. Students begin the major in the second quarter of their first year with introductory courses and are generally enrolled in one or more major courses each quarter until graduation. The many laboratory courses provide a combination of practical experience with design and ultimately lead to a culminating project that initiates at the end of the third year and spans the fourth year. All students complete a common electrical and computer engineering core that provides broad exposure to essential areas of the discipline, including digital and analog electronics, embedded microcontrollers, communications, and control systems. In addition to the core curriculum, students select from a range of Higher Level EECE and Technical Elective courses. Although students may choose Higher Level EECE electives based on their individual interests and goals, they are encouraged to select courses that align with a thematically related technical track. Technical tracks typically consist of three or more coordinated courses that provide depth in a particular area of Electrical and Computer Engineering. Why Consider an Electrical and Computer Engineering Major? Electrical and computer engineers conduct research, and design, develop, test, and oversee the development of electronic systems and the manufacture of electrical and computer equipment and devices. This includes a broad range of applications and specializations that generally involve both hardware and software - areas such as circuits, power systems, communications, analog and digital signal processing, embedded systems, and control systems. Products developed by electrical and computer engineers can have significant impacts on society. Recent examples include portable smart devices, medical instrumentation, electric and autonomous vehicles, sensor networks, and renewable and smart energy systems.
