The Electrical & Computer Engineering Department in the College of Engineering at Boise State University cares about its students. We seek to provide accessible, high-quality, nationally-recognized, undergraduate and graduate education in Electrical and Computer Engineering that prepares students for productive careers, graduate study, and lifelong learning. We strive towards the highest quality teaching and research, which benefits our students, our faculty, the University, the Treasure Valley, the State of Idaho, our nation, and society at large. One way we ensure continuous improvement in our programs is a focus on what's important. Our undergraduate Electrical Engineering program regularly measures the extent to which its students attain the following outcomes:
-- An ability to apply knowledge of mathematics, science, and engineering.
-- An ability to design and conduct experiments, as well as to analyze and interpret data.
-- An ability to 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.
-- An ability to function on multidisciplinary teams.
-- An ability to identify, formulate, and solve engineering problems.
-- An understanding of professional and ethical responsibility.
-- An ability to communicate effectively.
-- The broad education necessary to understand the impact of engineering solutions in a global, economic, environmental, and societal context.
-- Recognition of the need for, and an ability to engage in life-long learning.
-- A knowledge of contemporary issues.
