Within a few years from graduation, a graduate of electrical/computer engineering will have engaged in professional development, and will have attained any of the following program educational objectives:
- Achieve advanced technical expertise and/or advance to a leadership position in industry or government
- Earn a graduate degree from a respected graduate program in computer engineering, electrical engineering, or related field
- Become an innovator and/or entrepreneur in computer engineering, electrical engineering, or related space
- Use their professional knowledge, skills and abilities, as well as their sense of ethical responsibility, to make a positive impact on societal and environmental concerns and/or to improve the climate for diversity, equity and inclusiveness within the profession
The program learning outcomes for both the Electrical and Computer Engineering programs have adopted the ABET accreditation outcomes, called ABET (1)-(7).
These outcomes are:
(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 of 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
