Why Electrical Engineering?
A minor in an Electrical Engineering (EE) field is a great way to diversify your academic background! Additional skills acquired with an Electrical Engineering minor will provide you with all the essential tools needed to be a leader in technology and scientific discovery.
Academics and Curriculum
The Department of Electrical Engineering offers six undergraduate minors:
