Bachelor of Science - Electrical Engineering at University of West Florida - Pensacola: Tuition: $15,421.00 USD/year (Scholarship Available)
From cell phones to GPS and beyond, electrical engineers have contributed to the development of a wide range of indispensable modern technologies. If students like using hands-on science to change the world, consider UWF's electrical engineering program, and join an exciting field.
The goal is to ensure students will be successful in their chosen electrical engineering career.
The graduates pass Professional Engineer tests at rates higher than the national average. And the graduates attend elite graduate schools, including Johns Hopkins, Carnegie Mellon and Georgia Tech.
The Electrical Engineering program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET. ABET accreditation is assurance that a program meets the quality standards established by the profession for which it prepares its students.
We offer numerous scholarships, a range of internship and co-op experiences with local companies and plenty of undergraduate research opportunities.
The student teams compete in regional and national student robotics competitions and regularly beat teams from much larger and better known engineering programs.
The program prepares students to specialize in such areas as electronics, robotics, electronic-based communications, signal and image processing, controls and power systems.
Engaged professors teach in well-equipped facilities and supplement classes with hands-on experience.
The curriculum concentrates on a solid core of foundation courses. The electives allow students to delve deeply into selected subject matter. Students can start taking engineering courses before students have completed the math and science prerequisites, provided those engineering classes do not list prerequisites.
In the last two semesters, students will work on a senior design project (capstone) as the culmination of their engineering education. After developing objectives and analysis, students will create design concepts, researching implementation methods and performing a feasibility study. At the end of the final semester, they will present their project.
