Biomedical engineering
The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering currently consists of Computer Engineering and Electrical Engineering programs. The two classes are blended until the second semester of second year. The two programs are then divided through program specific courses, with the Computer Engineering class required to take Embedded Microprocessor Systems and Systems Programming while Electrical Engineering students are required to take Advanced Calculus II, and Electrical Properties of Materials. As of June 2011, Computer Engineering and Electrical Engineering had 173 and 208 students registered respectively for the fall 2011 semester. The Department also offers specialized classes for Nanotechnology, Mechatronics, Software, and Biomedical engineering students. As of 2016, the department is chaired by Dr. Vincent Gaudet.
