Developed with the help of wireless industry leaders, Auburn's wireless engineering program is the first of its kind in the nation. Our program is hosted in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and the Wireless Engineering Research and Education Center to provide students a technical foundation to succeed in the rapidly growing wireless industry.

To meet the need for engineers that can improve life and business in the era of a mobile society, the educational objectives of this curriculum are:

1. To develop within our graduates a basic foundation in wireless technology that will provide the technical proficiency needed for the professional practice of engineering in the wireless telecommunications industry,
2. To develop within our graduates the ability to communicate their ideas effectively within the technical community and to the general public,
3. To provide our graduates with the basis for, and instill within them an appreciation of and enthusiasm for, lifelong scientific inquiry, learning and creativity, and
4. To prepare our graduates to take their places in society as responsible citizens, with an appreciation of and understanding for the need to maintain the highest ethical standards in their personal and professional lives. Graduates of this program will be able to analyze, develop, design, test, administer and support wireless network systems, communication devices, and other components used in wireless computer and telecommunication networks.
