The EECS department offers concentrations in both Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. The 2023-2024 degree program offers the following concentrations. It is important to note that choosing one of these areas does not prevent you from taking courses in other areas.
Data Science: Prepares you for engineering careers in data-centric industries that require an understanding of data management and analysis fundamentals, as well as the application of such skills in various data-driven disciplines.
Computer Systems: Prepares you for engineering careers in the design, building, and management of various large-scale computing infrastructures, such as networking, hardware design, operating systems, and programming systems.
Physical Electronics and Integrated Circuits: Prepares you for engineering careers in industries needing an understanding of state-of-the-art analog and digital integrated circuits including RF communication circuits, A/D converters, sensor interfaces and design techniques used in today's most advanced integrated circuits.
Robotics and Embedded Software: Prepares you for engineering careers in industries applying robotics and embedded software to markets for manufacturing, automation, process control, automotive, aerospace, medical instruments, entertainment and other fields.
Signal Processing and Communications: Prepares you for engineering careers in industries applying signal processing or communications. Markets include wireless communication, computer networking, entertainment, video processing, biomedical, etc.
Visual Computing and Computer Graphics: Prepares you for engineering careers in industries applying advanced computer graphics, computer-aided design, and human-computer interaction methods to markets for education and training, entertainment, commerce, design and manufacturing, electronic journalism and similar fields.
Due to the experiential nature of the capstone program, project proposals are compiled through the Fung Capstone Marketplace each August. For a view of the current year's projects, please visit the Capstone Overview for final list.
