Electrical engineers lead the way in

communications, signal processing,

electronics, computing, and control.

They also design the systems that

generate and distribute reliable

electrical power to us all.

Here at Michigan Tech, you’ll work

with electricity in its many forms—

from electrons to large-scale mag-

netic fields. You’ll start your courses

with an introduction to the digital

world, learning techniques vital to

digital audio and video processing,

and computer systems.

Working as an electrical engineer,

you could devise ways to take

energy from turbines, fuel cells,

hydroelectric plants, and solar

panels and transfer it to homes,

factories, and businesses.

You could design components that

move digital information from place

to place, provide efficient and safe

power delivery to a community

grid, create a hybrid vehicle that

gets 1,000-plus miles per gallon, or

develop sensors to detect IEDs—

improvised explosive devices.

Photonics We offer a concentration in pho-

tonics—an exciting area of EE that

deals with optical energy. Photons

replace electrons as the conveyor of

information. You may find yourself

producing holograms, designing

vision sensors for a robot, or imag-

ing techniques for outer space.

Senior DesignIt takes teamwork to bring creative

ideas to life. Throughout your

senior year, you can work with

a small team of fellow students

on a project in collaboration with

industry. The experience is more

like a “first job” than a “last class”.

Recent projects include:

n Radar communications

hardware emulator

n Solar-powered charging device

for electric vehicles

n Remote synchronization of

a smart power grid

n Remote-control system for

a heavy-duty truck

EnterpriseJoin an Enterprise team and get the

extra edge on your education. Solve

real-world engineering, design,

and communication problems.

Develop marketing, business,

and leadership skills. Teams are

open to students from all majors,

and operate like companies in

the private sector. We host four

enterprise teams, but you can

choose from 28 across campus.

Blue Marble Security (BMS)Secures the future through

thoughtful use of technology.

Integrated Microsystems (IME)Integrates sensors and

microcontrollers.

Wireless Communication (WCE)Creates wireless, optical, and

biomedical solutions.

Automotive Computing (ACE)Develops innovative computers for

tomorrow’s automobiles.

Undergraduate Research Cutting-edge research isn’t just for

graduate students. You, too, can

gain valuable experience working

with a faculty mentor. One recent

project involved the creation of a

wireless sensor network for the

Pierre Auger Northern Observatory

in southeastern Colorado.

To keep pace with the explosive

growth in computing technology,

the world needs computer engi-

neers who can work comfortably

on both sides of the gap between

digital hardware and software.

Here at Michigan Tech, you’ll gain

plenty of real experience doing

exactly what computer engineers

do best: end-to-end design and

integration of complete systems—

both the hardware and the soft-

ware. By the time you graduate,

your ability to work on “both sides”

will enable you to conceive entire

systems from scratch.

Working as a computer engineer,

you may specialize in one area,

such as embedded systems, com-

puter networks, robotics, or VLSI

system design. You may also find

yourself working with other engi-

neering disciplines—for example,

teaming up with civil engineers to

design software to test the stress

points in a bridge or with mechani-

cal engineers to power a satellite

launch.

Computer engineering projects

range from designing nanotechnol-

ogy for bionic implants to inventing

software that detects brain tumors

much earlier, from creating special

effects for the movies to predict-

ing the strength of earthquakes

through computer simulation.
