Why Study Electrical Engineering at Wilkes University?

It’s an exciting time to study engineering at Wilkes University. Our brand-new engineering center has undergone a dramatic $8 million renovation, transforming it into the most sophisticated and up-to-date facility in the region. The Wilkes electrical engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, and includes development, design, testing and operations of electrical and electronic systems as well as components.

At Wilkes, class sizes are small and you’ll get plenty of hands-on laboratory work involving extensive design and research with new technologies. Your professors will become your mentors, and will work side-by-side with you to teach you and help you to achieve your goals.

Your first three semesters of study, as with all of our engineering disciplines, provide solid mathematical and scientific foundations critical for understanding the world of electrical engineering devices, systems and technologies.
A flexible curriculum allows you to select from a variety of technical electives in energy conversion devices, microcontroller-based system design, computer organization, modern communication systems and CAD for microfabrication.
With electives, you can specialize your studies for high-demand fields such as computer design and testing, power generation, communications (audio, broadcast and telecommunications), nanotechnology, robotics, instrumentation, information systems, microcontroller-based system design and design and fabrication of microelectronic devices and circuits.
