The Electrical Engineering Minor is intended for students who seek to gain and enhance their knowledge in electrical engineering principles and their applications. This minor is open to students from a variety of engineering backgrounds and is designed to complement their primary field of study.

This program prepares students to:

• Be recognized as innovative technical experts who demonstrate advanced understandings of the state-of-the-art in electrical engineering, as well as their professional, social and ethical responsibilities.

• Emerge as technical leaders through their own individual contributions and their abilities to work with and influence others.

• Function as effective entrepreneurs who nurture new technologies from concept to commercialization.

Student Outcomes

By the time of graduation, students will be able to:

• Identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.

• 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.

• Develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.

• Acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
