Electrical and computer engineering are diverse and exciting professions that implement the latest technology to create innovative solutions to modern day problems. Electrical and computer engineers design and build communications, power and control, computer, and remote sensing systems to meet our society’s needs.
Undergraduate students entering the electrical and computer engineering program will graduate with a Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical or Computer engineering. Students may place an emphasis in sub-specialties such as computers, power, and communications, or continue to pursue a Masters degree.
Electrical and computer engineering undergraduates actively participate in student organizations, undergraduate research, and projects like the Alaska Space Grant, Student Rocket Program, where students design, build, test, and launch rockets from the only University-owned rocket range in the world.
Electrical and computer engineers are in high demand in Alaska and nationwide. UAF engineering students and graduates are recruited by a variety of companies to fill summer internships and high paying full time positions.
