Bachelor of Science Degree<\/em><\/p>\n

Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE), one of the broadest engineering disciplines, is the branch of engineering that focuses on applying the laws of physics governing electricity, magnetism and light to develop products and services for the benefit of human kind. In addition to the traditional roles of designing, analyzing and working with components, circuits, and systems that utilize electrons and photons, electrical and computer engineers are also often engaged in systems integration, information technology, software development and frequently serve on multidisciplinary teams.<\/p>\n

Our program provides breadth across the discipline and a balance between theory and application. In addition, a large number of laboratory courses provide students opportunities for hands-on learning. The program provides graduates the skills and knowledge necessary for a dynamic career in electrical and computer engineering.<\/p>\n

The educational and career objectives of the program are to provide graduates with i) a solid foundation in mathematics, physical sciences, humanities and social sciences and the fundamentals of engineering design and analysis; ii) the technical knowledge and critical thinking skills required for the professional practice of electrical and computer engineering, and for seeking advanced degrees; and iii) the development of communication skills, teamwork, lifelong learning, and understanding of professional, ethical and social responsibility within a global context.<\/p>\n

SUNYIT\u2019s engineering facilities include 5 highly specialized laboratories with a multitude of electrical and electronic equipment, including function generators, power supplies, multi-meters, spectrum analyzers, oscilliscopes, micro-controller demonstration boards, logic analyzers, electrical and electronic components (resistors, capacitors, inductors, 74xx integrated circuit chips), digital probes, simulations software (Matlab, Electronics Workbench, Pspice, PCAD), and general purpose computers. Through a comprehensive approach towards experimentation, simulation and analysis, engineering skills and aptitudes are challenged from theory to practice, enabling and preparing SUNYIT ECE graduates to thrive and capitalize on future research and development opportunities.<\/p>\n

The ECE program offers two areas of concentration: electrical engineering (EE) and computer engineering (CoE). The EE track focuses on traditional EE disciplines including signal processing, semiconductor devices, communications and control theory. The CoE track emphasizes digital systems design, computer architecture, networking, and systems.<\/p>\n

Degree Requirements Overview
\n<\/b>The requirements for the BSECE program at SUNYIT are governed not only by the State Education requirements, but also those of EAC\/ABET. In order to earn the BSECE degree, the student\u2019s coursework must include:<\/span><\/p>\n
