现代生活的各个方面都受到电气工程师的影响。他们设计和开发系统，范围从大型电网和全球通讯网络到计算机和个人电子产品内部的微型集成电路。电气工程的分支包括通信，控制，电磁，电子，电力系统。我们全面的课程使学生能够识别，制定和实施针对实际问题的解决方案。学生将通过强化课堂学习概念的活动来学习如何在装备精良的实验室中使用现代工程工具。该课程强调设计和团队合作，最终达到顶峰的高级设计项目，该项目将早期课程中学习的材料进行整合。我们完善的合作计划使学生能够在专业环境中加强理论与实践之间的联系，并提供宝贵的行业经验。
Every aspect of modern life is influenced by electrical engineers. They design and develop systems ranging from massive power grids and global communications networks to tiny integrated circuits inside computers and personal electronics. Branches of electrical engineering include: <br><br>communications<br>controls<br>electromagnetics<br>electronics<br>power systems<br>Important applications include:<br>power generation and distribution<br>sustainable energy systems<br>manufacturing automation<br>aerospace systems<br>robotics<br>sensors and instrumentation<br>imaging systems<br>The University of Akron's comprehensive electrical engineering curriculum prepares students to identify, formulate, and implement solutions to real-world engineering problems. Students learn how to use modern engineering tools in well-equipped laboratories, with activities that reinforce the concepts learned in the classroom. The curriculum emphasizes design and teamwork and culminates in a capstone senior design project that integrates the material learned in earlier courses.
