Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at LSU applies fields of science and mathematics that relate to the sensing, communicating, and processing of information as well as the electrical, optical, and magnetic properties of the materials and the generation and transport of electrical energy. Among the many opportunities within the field of electrical engineering are careers involving computers, communications, automatic control, electronics, and electrical energy. ECE graduates have been successful in industry, academia, and entrepreneurial activities, both in this country and abroad. Faculty and students conduct cutting-edge research in a number of electrical and computer engineering areas that make an impact on their respective disciplines.<br><br>The Division of Electrical & Computer Engineering offers programs of study leading to the MS and PhD degrees. Areas of study include Automatic Control (system identification, robust, adaptive, fault-tolerant , and networked feedback control), Communications and Signal Processing (digital, computer, and wireless communications, data compression, digital signal processing, and image processing), Computers (computer architectures, computer graphics, parallel and distributed computing, compilers, embedded systems, reconfigurable computing, computer vision, and fault tolerant computing), Electronics (electronic materials and devices, micro - and nano-technologies, nanophotonics, electro-optics and VLSI circuits/systems design), and Power (power electronics, harmonic analysis, electric machines, variable speed drive, power system stability and control, renewable energies, smart grid and energy conversion). An interdisciplinary concentration in Information Technology is also available.
