B.S.E. in Electrical Engineering

Electrical engineering is all about information and energy. Electrical engineers control things, sense things, power things, design and build electronic devices, process signals, design computers, connect things and people – and lots more. The impact of electrical engineering on our daily lives can be seen and felt most everywhere. Next-generation electronic devices, robotics, environmental and medical sensors, power systems, energy conversion systems, communication systems, satellite systems, remote sensing, nanotechnology, medical devices, information technology, big data, lighting, displays, miniature and low-power computers, automotive electronics, imaging, and even cyber security are all the work of electrical engineers. This program is administered by the Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) Division of the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. Jobs: In recent years, most of the recruiters coming to Michigan are looking for electrical engineers, and are willing to pay them among the highest salaries. Impactful Research: Building on 50M of research, Michigan electrical engineering faculty and students are leaders in transferring technology from the lab to real-world products impacting sustainability, communication and information systems, security, computers, and more. Creativity: The Michigan Electrical Engineering program offers the widest variety of lab courses and senior major design experience courses to set your creativity free. The Electrical Engineering Program Guide describes 11 different paths of study that students may use as a guide to planning their courses. These are optional. The program guide provides an overview and a list of related courses for each of these paths of study: Applied Electromagnetics and RF Circuits; ControlsSystems; Embedded Systems; MEMS and Microsystems; Network Communication and Information Systems (NCIS); Optics and Photonics; PowerEnergy; Robotics; Signal and Image Processing; Solid-State Devices and Nanotechnology; VLSI Systems (Chip Design).
