2024-2025 Academic Catalog
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering offers hands-on, laboratory-oriented Bachelor of Science degree programs in Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering. These curricula are theoretical yet applied and career preparatory. Students gain expertise and practical knowledge in all Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering areas. The Electrical and Computer Engineering department has distinct focus areas, including communication systems, fiber optics, electromagnetics, antennas, control systems, network security, sensors, power systems, smart grids, microelectronics, digital systems, embedded systems, robotics, and computer systems.
Both Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering programs are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of ABET, http://www.abet.org, under the General and Electrical and Computer Programs Criteria.
The Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering (MSECE) degree program, offered on the Statesboro campus of Georgia Southern and online, integrates state-of-the-art technology and interdisciplinary and conceptual science with hands-on, operational skills preparation. The MSECE program is designed to meet the global need for engineers with leadership skills and application experience in consumer, commercial, and industrial fields. MSECE graduates are innovators prepared to become responsible, strategic leaders and exceptional engineering professionals. Graduates gain valuable knowledge and are uniquely positioned to impact their careers immediately. The program serves full-time students preparing for careers in Electrical and Computer Engineering and currently employed professionals seeking advanced education to augment their existing skills and background.
Courses include analytical math and experimental research in autonomous systems, optical communications, wireless power, small antennas, and energy harvesting. Thesis and or non-thesis tracks are available within the program. Research conducted through the thesis or independent study project provides an opportunity for individualized, in-depth study with a faculty mentor.
