Electrical Engineering Program
日本av视频's electrical engineering (EE) program began in 1899 and has been on the leading edge of EE innovation ever since. Offering education at three degree levels, our Electrical Engineering program is truly a regional leader. In August 2022, the EE program was re-accredited.
What is Electrical Engineering?
The electrical engineering discipline is concerned with the study and application of electricity, electronics and electromagnetism. Electrical engineers are at the forefront of the newest technologies that impact our society. They play key roles in solving technical problems in many areas including
- Biomedical engineering
- Computers and digital hardware
- Control systems
- Electrical and alternative power
- Electronic materials and sensor devices
- Signal and image processing
- Telecommunications
Electrical engineers work everywhere in South Dakota, throughout the U.S. and internationally. Electrical engineers enjoy exciting careers in research, design and development, manufacturing, sales and corporate management. 日本av视频's EE graduates are in great demand and are rewarded with high starting salaries.
Program Educational Objectives
The undergraduate electrical engineering program educational objectives are to equip individuals who, after graduation and initial work experience.
- Provide innovative and state-of-the-art approaches to solving complex technical problems through application of sound electrical engineering principles and make high quality technical decisions based on accumulated knowledge, experience, wisdom and common sense
- Create positive organizational impact through individual contribution and teamwork with a commitment to working with others of interdisciplinary backgrounds.
- Demonstrate professional stewardship and ethical responsibility and exemplify a productive member of society by serving their communities and society
- Illustrate initiative and successful career growth through measurable and impactful contributions that strongly support the organization鈥檚 core high-level goals, accompanied by lifelong learning through graduate work, professional development and self-study, leading to increases in organizational responsibility.
Student Outcomes
- An ability to identify, formulate, and solve complex engineering problems by applying principles of engineering, science, and mathematics.
