The Department of Electrical Engineering offers programs at the bachelor's, master's, and doctoral levels. At the baccalaureate level, the department offers programs leading to the Bachelor of Science in Engineering degree (B.5.E.) and the Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (B.S.E.E.). The B.S.E. degree program is interdisciplinary in scope and is designed for students who desire broad flexibility and the opportunity for interdisciplinary study. The program does not have a designated professional curriculum. Additional information about the program can be obtained from the faculty in the Department of Electrical Engineering. The program leading to the B.S.E.E. is described in this section.
Graduate programs in electrical engineering are described in the section entitled "Graduate Engineering Programs."
Electrical engineering programs are designed to prepare students for careers in the commercial, government, and academic sectors where electrical engineering expertise is needed in computers, information processing, circuit and electronic design, control and robotics, communications, energy systems, and manufacturing. Programs in the Department of Electrical Engineering are enhanced by the department's interaction with local industry and with the Indiana University School of Medicine. Students have direct and routine access to full-time faculty, which further enhances and accelerates the learning process. These
advantages and the overall metropolitan environment lead to an application-oriented, practical education that prepares students for success.
The Department of Electrical Engineering regards research as an important catalyst for stimulating excellence in engineering education. Graduate research and undergraduate design projects in the areas of signal processing, image proceSSing, artificial intelligence, control, robotics, manufacturing, and electronics offer opportunities for application and enhancement of expertise.
An undergraduate education in electrical engineering provides a strong foundation in mathematical, physical, and engineering sciences. In the course of acquiring this knowledge, students must also develop problem-solving skills. In addition, the general education courses in the program provide the communication skills and appreciation of human and social issues necessary to translate engineering achievements into advancements for society.
Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering
Accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology, Inc. (ABET)
The B.S.E.E. degree prepares students for career opportunities in the hardware and software aspects of design, development, and operation of electronic systems and components.
Challenging positions are available in government, commercial, and education sectors in the areas of electronics, communication systems, signal and information process:ng, power, automation, robotics and manufacturing, control, and computers. Within these areas, career opportunities include design, development, research, manufacturing, marketing, operation, field testing, maintenance, and engineering management.
Four specialized tracks are available in the B.S.E.E. program: circuits and electronics;
communication and signal processing; computer engineering; and robotics, control, and manufactUring. Within each of these tracks a total of 129 credit hours is required for
graduation. These include the general education requirements for engineering, completion of the freshman engineering program, the sophomore electrical engineering program that follows, and the reqUirements for each track that follow.
NOTE: Humanities and social science electives must be chosen in accordance with departmental guidelines and from an approved list of electives, available in the department.
