Overview

The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department is listed in the top 100 college departments according to U.S. News & World Report. Students of the Electrical Engineering program of the Utah State University graduate with nearly 100% job placement and have among the highest starting salaries of all degree programs.

Electrical engineers work with electronics, electricity, and electromagnetism, and electronic devices. Electrical engineering covers a broad range of application areas, including power generation and delivery, transportation (cars and airplanes), communication (radio, TV, wireless, telephones), robotics, computers (memory systems, displays, microprocessors), defense applications (navigation, radar, and secure communication), and consumer electronics (DVD and MP3 players).

Electrical engineering and computer engineering are similar, as both build on the same technical foundation. They differ in that electrical engineering is a broader degree, with additional background provided in areas such as electronics, controls, electromagnetics, and signal processing. Computer engineering has a deeper focus on computers and software, including computer architecture, networking, operating systems, and algorithms.
