Electrical Engineering (Secondary Education)

Overview

The Electrical Engineering (Secondary Education) program at Boise State University  provides students with a rigorous foundation in physics, mathematics, and computing. Core courses in electronics and digital systems orient students to the major and begin to build each student’s skills in problem analysis and design of experiments. The program concludes with a year-long design experience in which students carry out a team project with industry sponsors.

Key facts:

Our curriculum emphasizes basic theory to ensure students gain a solid technical foundation, and then build students’ skills through practical experience. Electives (18 credit hours) allow students to fully explore the major and try different specialty areas, such as power engineering, semiconductors, or security of cyber-physical systems. As a result, every student in the department has an opportunity to map out a unique program suited to her/his background, interests, and goals.
