Electrical & Computer Engineering Program Highlights

  • Technical electives help you customize your education. Courses in Computer Graphics, Advanced C++, Database Management, Video Game Design, iPhone and Android App Development, and many more are offered.
  • A Capstone Experience challenges students to apply what they have learned in a comprehensive design project often done in conjunction with an internship or engineering practitioner. This two-semester experience requires students to engage in a complete design cycle from concept development through analysis, design, and report writing.
  • Our Student Chapter of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) provides students with opportunities to enhance leadership skills, build relationships with peers and alumni, and network with business leaders through conferences and seminars.
  • The annual IEEE Student Competition gives students the opportunity to compete with over 100 southeastern engineering schools. Competitions in robotics, website design, academic paper presentation, software/hardware, and ethics help develop skills in oral presentation, written communication, and real-time problem solving.
