Program Educational Objectives for Electrical Engineering

The primary goal of the Electrical Engineering (ELEC) Program is to produce graduates who will successfully practice electrical engineering in a broad range of endeavors. Accomplishing this goal is demonstrated through achievement of the following program educational objectives:

1. Graduates of the ELEC program apply their expertise to solve societal and technological problems in the professional practice of electrical engineering or in any other career path they choose.  
2. Guided by high standards of ethics and professionalism, graduates of the ELEC program contribute to the success of their various enterprises by exhibiting effective communication and project management skills, by working productively with members of a diverse team, and by providing aspiring leadership.  
3. Graduates of the ELEC Program demonstrate life-long learning through self-study, professional training and licensure, and graduate level education.  

Program Educational Objectives for Computer Engineering

The primary goal of the Computer Engineering (CMPE) Program is to produce graduates who will successfully practice computer engineering in a broad range of endeavors. Accomplishing this goal is demonstrated through achievement of the following program educational objectives:

1. Graduates of the CMPE program apply their expertise to solve societal and technological problems in the professional practice of computer engineering or in any other career path they choose.  
2. Guided by high standards of ethics and professionalism, graduates of the CMPE program contribute to the success of their various enterprises by exhibiting effective communication and project management skills, by working productively with members of a diverse team, and by providing aspiring leadership.  
3. Graduates of the CMPE Program demonstrate life-long learning through self-study, professional training and licensure, and graduate level education.  

Student Outcomes for ECE Department Programs

Graduates of the Electrical Engineering (ELEC) and Computer Engineering (CMPE) programs will have achieved:

1. an ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
2. an ability to apply engineering design to produce solutions that meet specified needs with consideration for public health, safety, and welfare, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, and economic factors.
3. an ability to communicate effectively with a range of audiences.
4. 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.
5. 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.
6. an ability to develop and conduct appropriate experimentation, analyze and interpret data, and use engineering judgment to draw conclusions.
7. an ability to acquire and apply new knowledge as needed, using appropriate learning strategies.
