ABET Program Educational Objectives
The Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering programs are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, https://www.abet.org, under the General Criteria and the Program Criteria for Electrical, Computer, Communications, Telecommunication(s) and Similarly Named Engineering Programs.
Student Outcomes
The Outcomes of the ECE undergraduate programs in Electrical and Computer Engineering are to educate students who will have:
- an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
- an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration of public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
- an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
- an ability to recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations and make informed judgments, which must consider the impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts.
- an ability to function effectively on a team whose members together provide leadership, create a collaborative and inclusive environment, establish goals, plan tasks, and meet objectives.
- an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
- an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
Enrollment & Graduation Data Since 2011
As of Fall 2016, students are placed directly into their intended program/department under pre-major status as soon as they declare their intended program (whether as new students or current students switching programs). Prior to this, students would not be placed in their intended program/departments until they had completed their admission requirements. Instead they would be housed in general advisement centers, such as General Engineering.
The numbers in the column represent the total number of graduates for that academic year. The academic year constitutes of Fall, Spring, and Summer for that period. For example, 2020-2021 encompasses Fall 2020, Spring 2021, and Summer 2021 graduates.
