About the School

 
People

The School of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science (EECS) was created in the spring of 2015 to allow greater access to courses offered by the Departments of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science and Engineering. The partnership between the departments allows EECS undergraduate and graduate students to easily engage in exciting collaborative research fields.

We offer undergraduate degrees in computer science, computer engineering, data sciences, and electrical engineering, and graduate degrees in computer science and engineering and in electrical engineering. EECS focuses on the convergence of technologies and disciplines to meet today’s industrial demands.
