Electrical engineering is a diverse field of study encompassing much of the underlying technology of the modern world. Electrical engineers lead the design of microelectronics, computers, communication networks, control systems, and power generation and distribution. Aerospace and military systems include major subsystems conceived and designed by electrical engineers.
At WSU Vancouver, you will learn the fundamental theory, principles and knowledge of the field. You will gain hands-on experiences through laboratory work and design projects and will participate in a senior design project with a team of students, usually spanning multiple engineering disciplines.
