The EE, CompE, and BioE curricula have different program requirements and objectives. The First through Third semesters in EE and CompE are identical, and a decision to join one of them is not required until the beginning of the Fourth semester. The First through Third semesters of the BioE curricula are nearly identical to EE and CompE but for the two requisite courses in General Biology. The First through Fourth semesters of the EE, CompE, and BioE curricula are identical in the fundamentals of Electrical Engineering. Elective course sequences are available in the EE, CompE, and BioE curricula to enhance the undergraduate experience and prepare the transition to engineering practice in a specific area. All students in the ECE Department receive a broad background in the fundamentals of electrical and computer engineering. The EE curriculum is defined by the requisite courses in electromagnetics, electronics, and control systems. The CompE curriculum is defined by the requisite courses in computer science, digital logic and microprocessor, and embedded systems. The BioE curriculum is defined by requisite courses in biology, anatomy, physiology, electromagnetics, control systems, and digital signal processing. Students should consult with their faculty advisor to develop a program of study for their interests with elective courses in each of the curricula. ECE courses also have strict prerequisites, which are intended to contribute to the professional development of the student. ECE Departmental and University Policies do not allow students to continue in a course for which they have registered but do not have the prerequisites. University Policies are also in effect governing repeating or dropping a course. The Electrical Engineering curriculum, the Computer Engineering option, or the Bioengineering option require a minimum of 124 semester hours, and can be completed as a Four Year Curriculum. Some courses can also be taken during Summer Sessions to alleviate the number of semester hours required in the Fall and Spring Semesters. The Department also offers a decelerated Five Year Curriculum for students who need to take a reduced course load, especially for those who have extended hours of part-time jobs. It is also recommended for students who need to take fewer courses to improve their GPA. It's not how long it takes to graduate, it's how well. The Five Year Curriculum is based on the same set of courses as in the traditional Four Year Curriculum except that the courses are distributed over a period of ten semesters with an average of 12 to 13 semester hours in each semester. Students may continue their studies beyond their bachelor's degrees into the master's degree program (MSE) offered by the Department by taking advanced professional level courses, and performing industry-oriented research. The College of Engineering also offers an opportunity for further studies and research leading to the Ph.D. degree in Engineering. Degree programs offered by the Department are: EE Curriculum Outline Students should consult with their academic advisor for further details of the curricula and for course selection.

The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering offers an undergraduate degree program leading to Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering. The BSEE degree program is accredited by the Accreditation Board of Engineering and Technology (ABET), the recognized accreditation body for engineering and engineering technology undergraduate education. Within this program, students have the opportunity to complete the degree by taking a broad range of courses within the field of Electrical Engineering. The Department also offers an option in Computer Engineering (CompE) and Bioengineering (BioE), which are specialization tracks within the degree program. The curriculum is designed to provide preparation for a professional career in EE, CompE, or BioE.
