California State University Sacramento

The field of Electrical and Electronic Engineering continues to expand in scope, driven by advances in technology and new challenges faced by society.  To prepare our graduates for careers in this demanding field, we equip them with a strong background in the fundamental principles of the discipline, and subsequent advanced courses in specific areas.  Our curriculum provides practical, hands-on experience through laboratory courses.

The Electrical and Electronic Engineering program provides breadth (core courses), depth (elective sequence), and a culminating design project to apply the knowledge gained through the curriculum. The curriculum allows flexibility by offering a number of elective courses providing our graduates with depth in their respective areas of interest. The electives offered provide depth in one or more of the following areas: Analog/Digital Electronics, Control Systems, Communication Engineering, and Power Engineering. Students select a senior project either in power engineering or in the general area of electronics. Each of these options includes a sequence of two courses for the completion of the project, and has its own pre-requisite requirements.

Note: Students graduating with a BS in Electrical and Electronic Engineering will not be subject to the University’s Foreign Language Graduation Requirement. Students who change major may be subject to the University’s Foreign Language Graduation Requirement.
