Electrical & Computer Engineering
SVSU’s major in Electrical Engineering leads to the Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering (B.S.E.E.) degree. Majors must choose one of the following two areas in which to concentrate (choice may be made after the first year of coursework):
- Electrical Systems Engineering (ECE) students receive more exposure to digital controls, power systems, electronics, and robotics.
- Computer Engineering students become more experienced in microprocessors, computer circuits, computer hardware and software, and data communications.
All students receive a foundation in analog and digital circuits; electrical machines; electromagnetic fields; microprocessors; analog and digital control systems; digital signal processing; communications; and mechanical engineering. A minor in Electrical Engineering is also available.
Why SVSU?
- SVSU ECE graduates have high pass rates on the Fundamentals of Engineering professional exams.
- The ECE curriculum is noted for the hands-on lab and design experiences.
- Design is taught and integrated throughout the ECE curriculum and culminates in a major design experience related to the student's area of concentration.
- The average class size at SVSU is only 24 students, allowing for meaningful interation between faculty and students.
- The program is accredited by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (ABET).
- The newly renovated SVSU Pioneer Hall of Engineering opened in August 2007 featuring a newly constructed 28,000 square foot, 2-story addition. This combined with the existing remodeled area will now create a 72,000 square-foot building that will house engineering faculty offices and state-of-the-art classrooms and labs.
