What is Electrical Engineering?

Electrical Engineers create the technological advances that shape the future.  This field encompasses innovative electrical, electronic, and system solutions including robotics, renewable energy, communication technologies, artificial intelligence, and power systems. Kennesaw State University’s Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) provides an ABET accredited, practical, student-centric education that prepares students with in-demand technical and professional skills for the careers of today and tomorrow. KSU ECE students receive hands-on experience in modern engineering labs integrated with faculty-taught lectures.  Outside the classroom, KSU offers internship opportunities in the greater Atlanta area technology industry, research opportunities with our expert faculty, and personal development in professional societies and technical organizations.
