Educate students who, after graduation, will be successful engineers in industry, government laboratories and other organizations, or advanced students in the best graduate programs. In these endeavors, they will:
1. Apply their understanding of the fundamental scientific, engineering, and professional principles at the foundation of Electrical Engineering,
2. Apply advanced mathematical, computational and experimental techniques to respond to technological demands in an economical and efficient manner,
3. Contribute to society as broadly educated, articulate, and ethical citizens who are at ease in multidisciplinary teams, and
4. Strive to continually update and renew their knowledge throughout their careers in order to meet the needs of a rapidly changing world.
Students graduating with a B.S. in Electrical Engineering will have demonstrated the ability to
1. Understand advanced mathematics, probability and statistics, basic science, and computer science, and apply this knowledge to electrical engineering disciplines,
2. Design, conduct, evaluate and report experiments, including analysis and statistical interpretation of data,
3. Identify, formulate and solve electrical engineering problems,
4. Use basic concepts and modern engineering tools (laboratory instrumentation and computer hardware and software) to design electrical engineering systems, components and processes to meet specifications, taking into account cost, safety, environmental and socio-political constraints,
5. Communicate effectively and work on multidisciplinary teams,
6. Be aware of professional and ethical responsibilities, and contemporary issues, and appreciate the societal, economic, and environmental impacts of engineering,
7. Enter professional practice or graduate school with the recognition of the need for life-long learning and the ability to pursue it.
"I came to Hopkins because I was interested in medicine and math," says Nikhil, a sophomore working at the Center for Imaging Science. "We are interested in determining the different neurobiological correlates of psychological disorders and doing so using various statistical techniques such as Landmark matching on high resolution MRI's"…
