Electrical and Computer Engineering

Western Washington University - Bellingham
The Electrical and Computer Engineering program offers a B.S. degree in electrical and computer engineering. The program serves current students, industry, the University, and the citizens of the state of Washington by preparing students to find pragmatic engineering solutions to problems, while understanding the impact of their solutions in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context. The educational experience emphasizes lab based experiential learning, teamwork, communication, and critical thinking, while the program curriculum provides current, practical engineering knowledge built on a sound mathematical and science background. The Electrical and Computer Engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, abet.org. Students begin the major in the second quarter of their first year with introductory courses and are generally enrolled in one or more major courses each quarter until graduation. The many laboratory courses provide a combination of practical experience with design and ultimately lead to a culminating project that initiates at the end of the third year and spans the fourth year. The Electronics concentration focuses on the development, design, and application of circuits, devices, and firmware for embedded systems, and includes advanced digital and analog electronics content.
