Electrical Engineering - New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology

Electrical Engineering from New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology is a Campus Bachelor Electrical Engineering degree that prepares you for a Engineering career. Mission The mission of the New Mexico Tech Electrical Engineering Department is two-fold: (1) to develop and maintain a program of excellence in teaching which ensures that our graduates have technical knowledge and professional skills they need to become effective engineers in the rapidly-changing technical environment of today?s society, so that these graduates will contribute to the growth and development of New Mexico and our nation, and (2) to develop and maintain state-of-the-art research programs which are responsive to the needs of industry and government, which provide excellent educational opportunities for students, and which provide an environment for intellectual growth and excitement. Program Educational Objectives 1. Graduates will be technically competent within the degree of Electrical Engineering. They will have the ability to synthesize and apply engineering knowledge and fundamentals to solving complex, real-world electrical engineering problems. They will demonstrate the ability to pursue lifelong learning in engineering , thus reinforcing and expanding on their engineering fundamentals and their depth and strength in mathematics and science. 2. Graduates will be prepared for professional practice in electrical engineering . They will have the ability to understand ethical and social choices inherent in the engineering profession and apply them in their daily practice of engineering . They will have the ability to work effectively in teams, through having the ability to communicate effectively, both orally and in writing; and they will appreciate the importance of encouraging the best in others. Undergraduate Program The Department of Electrical Engineering concentrates on a high-quality undergraduate program in electronics and design, combined with a firm intellectual foundation in the fundamentals of circuits, signals, and systems. As with other degree programs at Tech, students are also provided with a breadth of knowledge in the basic sciences, mathematics, humanities, and social sciences. Laboratories constitute an important part of the electrical engineering program. The laboratories are closely coupled with the lecture parts of courses and utilize modern, state-of-the-art equipment. Personal computerbased instruments and software packages provide students with up-to-date engineering and design techniques. Design is integrated into all aspects of the curriculum. Students take an ?Introduction to Design? course in the second semester of their junior year. This and their other course work prepare students for two Senior Design Project courses, in which students apply material learned in the classroom to real-world problems. Projects are available from the greater Tech community, including Tech research labs, Langmuir Laboratory for Atmospheric Research, the Energetic Materials Research and Testing Center, and the VLA and VLBA facilities of the National Radio Astronomy Observatory.
