Welcome From Department Head
Where Ingenuity Reigns

Greetings!
Look around. ECE is everywhere — from microscopic integrated circuits and biomedical systems to large-scale sustainable energy systems and the power grid.
ECE is one of the most far-reaching majors in the UA College of Engineering, and multidisciplinary faculty exploring the boundaries of existing and emerging technologies are at the heart of it all. Their breadth and depth of knowledge is the foundation for your education.
At the University of Arizona’s Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, students increase intellectual capacity, learn to use sophisticated tools, and gain invaluable experience with the technology steering the world into the future.
Longstanding ECE partnerships with industry, government agencies and alumni position the department for further growth and bolster your career potential.
Get set to stand out in whatever field you choose. Demand for skilled electrical and computer engineers in all industries continues to rise as companies invest in making their systems bigger, better and faster, and the world adopts new technologies.
Explore the ECE website and see how you fit in. Learn more about groundbreaking research, outstanding graduate students and undergraduates, and esteemed faculty who are patenting technology, starting their own companies, and guiding students to engineering success.
Join us, and change lives for the better!
