Electrical Engineering (BS)

With a degree in Electrical Engineering, you’ll prepare for a wide set of rewarding career options in a dynamic field. Some of the projects you’ll work on may not even be invented, yet!

Engineering students connect components with wires

Electrical engineers design and develop things such as new energy systems, biomedical equipment, computing technologies, telecommunications, transportation, entertainment, and many more systems related to electricity, electronics, or electromagnetism.

What’s different? Our approach looks to the greater good by serving others through technology. The motivation we share within a Christian environment shines through in the kinds of projects we tackle.

Accredited? Yes, the Electrical Engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET, as you would expect.

This major leads to a bachelor of science degree.
