Program Overview

The B.S.E.E. in Electrical and Computer Engineering program at Marshall University in Huntington, West Virginia, allows students to get a double major degree of electrical engineering and computer engineering simultaneously, preparing them for a breadth of careers in fields ranging from energy to aerospace to IT to a wide range of industries. Whether a CAD technician, a network engineer or a nuclear engineer, Marshall graduates with a B.S.E.E. in Electrical and Computer Engineering have skills needed to solve complex engineering problems, using solutions that meet needs of public health and safety, as well as global, cultural, social, environmental, economic and other factors.

One of the premier engineering programs in West Virginia, Marshall’s Department of Computer Sciences and Electrical Engineering has top facilities and experienced faculty making contributions of their own, as well as making sure that Marshall’s B.S.E.E. graduates have honed skills in conducting experimentation, analyzing and interpreting data, and using engineering judgment to draw conclusions, and recognize ethical and professional responsibilities in engineering situations.

The technical knowledge in the electrical and computer engineering is constantly evolving and extensive, and so is the program of study for Marshall’s electrical engineering and computer engineering bachelor’s degree students. Marshall’s B.S.E.E. students gain extensive knowledge and hands-on experience in energy and power systems, control systems, communication systems, and computer engineering. We have experienced faculty members with various areas of expertise, such as Wireless Communications and Networks, Signal Processing, Machine Learning, Discrete Control, Embedded Systems, Microgrid Design and Renewable Energy.
