BS Electrical Engineering
Description
Electrical/electronic
engineering graduates from Chico are qualified
for professional practice or graduate work in
several areas of specialization. In addition to
fundamentals of science and mathematics, the
program provides a solid background in
circuits, analog and digital electronics,
microprocessors, and electromagnetics. The
senior-level classes offered for
electrical/electronic engineers include control
systems, communication systems, digital signal
processing, electro-optics, and digital system
design. The program is accredited by the
Accreditation Board for Engineering and
Technology (ABET).
Mission
The
Electrical Engineering Department will educate
each student to be a responsible and productive
electrical/electronic engineer who can
effectively manage future
challenges.
Objectives
The
objective of the Electrical/Electronic
Engineering Program is to produce graduates
able to:
-
Apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and
engineering to identify, formulate, and solve
electrical/electronic engineering
problems.
- Use
industry standard tools to analyze, design,
develop and test computer-based systems
containing both hardware and software
components.
- Achieve
success in graduate programs in electrical
engineering or a related field.
- Continue
to develop their knowledge and skills after
graduation in order to succeed personally and
contribute to employer success.
- Work
effectively as a member of a
multi-disciplinary development team and
undertake leadership roles when
appropriate.
- Communicate
their thoughts, in both written and oral
forms, so that others can comprehend and
build on their work.
- Appreciate
the importance of ethics in the profession
and the need to act in society's best
interest.
