Bachelor of Science - Electrical & Computer Engineering

Obtain a keen understanding of the hardware and software used in controls, signal processing, integrated circuits, communication networks, wireless communication, and computer operating systems. Our curriculum will prepare students for a career in industry, government, or further academic study. Gain design experience under the guidance of a faculty advisor, drawing upon knowledge learned in digital control, embedded systems, and other courses. They'll incorporate engineering standards and practices as defined by the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology. Work with classmates to design components and systems used in: • smart cars • drones • robotic arms • wearable devices for medical applications

In alignment with the NYT mission and the mission of the School of Engineering and Computing Sciences, our program faculty, with input from stakeholders such as employers, alumni, and industrial advisory board members, have determined Program Educational Objectives to prepare versatile engineers who: • Are successfully employed in engineering or their chosen career path; • Pursue graduate studies and/or continued education in their field; and • Function as responsible members of society through engagement in community or professional organizations.

To support these objectives, the curriculum has been developed to provide student outcomes describing what degree candidates are expected to know and be able to do by the time they graduate. Upon graduation, students are expected to acquire the ability to: • Apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering. • Design and conduct experiments as well as analyze and interpret data. • Design a system, component, or process to meet desired needs within realistic constraints such as economic, environmental, social, political, ethical, health and safety, manufacturability, and sustainability. • Function on multidisciplinary teams. • Identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems. • Understand professional and ethical responsibility. • Communicate effectively. • Understand the larger-scale impact of engineering solutions in global, economic, environmental, and societal contexts. • Engage in and recognize the need for lifelong learning. • Understand and know about contemporary issues. • Use techniques, skills, and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice.
