What is Electrical Engineering? Electrical Engineering (EE) is much more than just building electrical circuits. Electrical engineers are responsible for integrating electronic devices, communication systems, and electric power into all aspects of our daily lives. The EE program is designed to prepare students to work in manufacturing, energy systems, robotics, circuits, communications, information processing and biomedical engineering.
What is Computer Engineering? Computer engineering (CmpE) is an evolutionary degree program that has emerged from electrical engineering and computer science that deals with many aspects of computer systems. This degree program combines analytical skills, hardware expertise, and software knowledge. Computer engineers may design computer systems, networks, operating systems, or software.
Why Electrical & Computer Engineering @ IUPUI?
Experienced, world-class faculty and caring staff
Convenient and exciting downtown location
Globally recognized Purdue engineering degrees
Strong connections with local and national industry
Small class size and diverse student population

The Office of Career Services and Professional Development for the Purdue School of Engineering and Technology is conducting a survey to acquire information on our graduating students. Through this survey we hope to determine what companies are hiring our graduates, what the average salary is for each of the different disciplines within the school, and if internship and cooperative education is making an impact. This information will ultimately be used to improve our services and to provide crucial statistical information for future students.
