Of all the various disciplines, perhaps no other branch of engineering can claim to have had such an impact on modern society as Electrical and Computer Engineering. The ease, speed and precision by which electrical energy and electrical signals can be transmitted,
transformed and controlled has not only influenced the everyday life of people, but has also changed the course of many other disciplines. Over the short span of only a few decades, Electrical and Computer Engineering has grown from a study of abstract phenomena to a multi-branch discipline with significant applications in the areas of power systems, communication systems, control systems, computers, electronics and photonics. This rapid growth, coupled with major advances in technology and material science, has made the field a very dynamic one, and it poses a challenge to the student, to the educator and to the practising Electrical and Computer Engineer.
The Electrical & Computer Engineering Department consists of 14 full time faculty members, 5 adjuncts, 2 secretaries, 4 technologists, 150+ undergraduate students, and 60+ graduate students. Post-graduate degrees offered are the M.Eng. (project based), M.A.Sc. (thesis based), and Ph.D. (thesis based).
