Develop more reliable power systems. Design faster bullet trains. Build the next-generation minicomputer. These are just samples of the types of exciting projects students could lead as an electrical engineer. In this program, students will learn how to design and test electrical circuits and systems for many different types of applications. For example, students could explore solutions for the storage and transmission of power; investigate the workings of cell phones, computers, and MP3 players; study control systems in cars and planes; and much more. Students in this program have special opportunities to work with the U.S. Navy designing autonomous submarines, fabricate next-generation microelectronics that can be used in the newest computing technology, and spend summers at the NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
