The field of electrical and computer engineering is revolutionizing technology and impacting diverse areas such as agriculture, environmental monitoring, forestry, health care, renewable energy and robotics. The ECE curriculum includes hand-on learning in which students to apply their knowledge of electrical and computer engineering to create their own robot. In an introductory class, students build a TekBot and as they progress through the program they add more functions to their robot. The Electrical and Computer Engineering undergraduate program has the following objectives: Graduates of the program will have successful careers. Graduates of the program will continue to learn and adapt to a changing world. Potential Job Opportunities Embedded systems engineer: Design and build "light weight" computer systems that function within a larger system. Work for companies such as Intel, Garmin, Hewlett Packard, Tektronix, and Planar Systems. Computer networks engineer: Design, implement and maintain wired and wireless computer networks for high availability and security. Work for companies such as Cisco, HP, Google, IBM. Computer architecture engineer: Design, simulate and implement low-level computer subsystems. Define how such systems interact to provide high performance. Work for companies including Intel and Nvidia. Digital logic designer: Design, simulate and implement application specific integrated circuits. Work for companies such as Intel, Micron Technology, Nvidia, Marvell, and Tektronix. Test engineer: Design and implement test systems and strategies to ensure proper and reliable operation of electronic products. Work for such companies as Tektronix, Intel, Planar Systems, Garmin and Micron Technologies.
