      Educational Objectives

    The undergraduate program in Electrical & Electronic Engineering is fundamental to the mission of the College of Engineering and Computer Science at CSUS. Graduates from our program will:

    A. Obtain a broad education in electrical engineering built upon a solid understanding of mathematics, science, and basic engineering.

    B. Be able to apply fundamental electrical engineering concepts to complex situations and solve problems, using contemporary engineering tools and techniques.

    C. Be able to communicate effectively.

    D. Obtain breadth and depth through required core courses in circuits, electronics, communications, control systems, microprocessors, electromagnetics and electric machines. Depth is also obtained from elective courses consistent with the range of technical specialties.

    E. Be able to work with contemporary laboratory instrumentation, design and perform experiments, and analyze and interpret the results.

    F. Be able to work in teams to solve complex design problems.

    G. Obtain a balanced education with a solid understanding of ethical and professional responsibility, which enables them to function well in the profession of engineering. The program prepares students to be "life-long" learners who are prepared to meet the demands of a rapidly changing technologically advancing society.

    H. Obtain knowledge of the important human factors such as safety, environmental impact, and impact on society. They will be able to apply their skills in new contexts and learn to appreciate and manage intelligently the consequences of their technical decisions.
