Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering

Electrical engineers apply electrical, electronic, and magnetic theory to obtain solutions for problems related to the development, design, and operation of electrical hardware and software, control systems, electrical machines and communications systems. Besides development, design, operations, and research, electrical engineers may be involved in manufacture, installation, and sale of electrical and electronic equipment and are employed by a wide variety of organizations which produce, use, or service this equipment.

Three areas of concentration are available in electrical engineering at Lawrence Tech. Computer engineering is intended for those students who wish to emphasize computer and digital system design. Electronics engineering is intended for students who want to obtain a specific background in electronic circuit design. Electrical and Power Systems is intended for students who wish to concentrate in the control of power and electromechanical systems. Each concentration requires an identical core curriculum, three specific concentration courses, two approved technical design electives, and three lab courses associated with concentration and/or technical elective courses.

Dual majors will be permitted a number of substitutions as approved by the department chairman consistent with accreditation requirements.
Each student should have an advisor-approved Plan of Work. Contact the Electrical and Computer Engineering Office, Room E217 for your faculty advisor.
