Engineering builds on a strong traditional mathematics, science, and engineering core. The Electrical and Computer Engineering emphasis focuses on the areas of digital systems, communication systems, and computer controlled instrumentation and computer simulation.
The mathematics courses listed as cognates for the Engineering degree satisfy the requirements for a minor in mathematics. A second major in mathematics requires 6 additional credits in mathematics, and a second major in physics requires 14–17 additional credits in physics. See the Mathematics and Physics department listings for details.
