Welcome

Welcome to the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) Web site.  The department offers an accredited undergraduate electrical engineering program. In the fall of 2002 we successfully started a new computer engineering program. The first ABET visit to review this program will take place in the fall of 2008.

The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Howard University is a dynamic unit within the College of Engineering, Architecture and Computer Sciences.  Over the years, the department of Electrical and Computer Engineering has established a reputation for excellence in teaching, research and service to Howard University, as well as the local, national, and international communities.  For many years the department has been one of the top producers of African-American and minorities engineers at the bachelor, master and Ph.D. level.  The department has some of the most highly regarded Centers and laboratories where exciting research in innovative technology continues to attract students from all over the world. The nanotechnology center, the center for energy and control, the communications and signal processing laboratory and the drives and control laboratory are some samples of locations where quality instructions and excellent research are being conducted. Our graduates are sought after by both private industry and government agencies.  Many of our graduates continue to be accepted into top graduate programs in the nation.  A large number of our graduates have migrated to leadership positions all over the world. 

You should feel free to visit the main departmental office located in Room 1022, L.K. Downing Building. You should also visit the Office of Student Services located in Room 1114, L.K. Downing Building and acquaint yourself with other academic and non-academic resources that are available in the College and the University. 

The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering’s faculty and staff are committed to continuous improvement of our program. We encourage your comments on all aspects of our program.  We are particularly interested in comments regarding program educational objectives, learning outcomes and the curriculum.
