Since the discovery of the electron in 1897, and the invention of the transistor in 1947, Electronics Engineering has continued to experience tremendous growth that has greatly impacted our lives. The present "information age," which features electronic data storage, retrieval, manipulation, and high-speed computing and communications, is based on high-density microelectronic (and soon nanoelectronic) solid-state integrated circuits. Revolution in wireless and optical communications technologies also necessitates fundamental understanding of the generation, propagation, and detection of the electromagnetic waves.

Bachelor of Science
The Electronics Engineering curriculum is designed to strike a balance between theoretical and laboratory experience and to impart fundamental and practical understanding of the principles required for a successful career in electronics and communications engineering. This requires a solid core of foundation courses in physics, mathematics, computer science and general engineering, which is also essential for life-long learning. Concentration courses in Electronics Engineering (that integrate theory and laboratory wherever possible) cover electromagnetics, circuits, electronics, digital design and communications. Courses in electric machinery, classical control, computer systems, the capstone senior thesis and industrial internship are also required. State-of-the-art electronics engineering elective courses provide seniors and advanced undergraduates the opportunity to develop a thrust in advanced electronics, communication systems and computers.
A total of 162 credits are required for the bachelor's degree in Electronics Engineering:
Core Curriculum (40 credits)
-The science requirement of the core curriculum electives is met within the Engineering core requirements. The effective core curriculum requirement is therefore 36 credits.
-Students should take ORGN 307 for the social science requirement (Note that the prerequisite for ORGN 307 is not required for Engineering students).
