Our electrical and computer engineering programs shape brilliant visionaries into analyzers, designers, and developers — improving and modernizing life for all. Top talent develops here including a notable alumnus, Vinod Dham who is credited with the design of the Pentium processor.
Technology developed by electrical and computer engineers has revolutionized every facet of modern life. These developments have applications in multidisciplinary settings — medicine, communications, entertainment, business, transportation, and education— and represent enormous promise for society.
Computer engineers specialize in the design and analysis of computer hardware and software systems, including computer processors, circuit boards, and network systems. As a student, you will gain the skills to design, analyze, and build technology to improve and modernize daily life.
Cybersecurity engineers are in demand in organizations throughout society. Non-profits, hospitals, companies, government agencies and intergovernmental organizations are all seeking knowledgeable professionals to keep their organization’s operations and data safe from attackers.
You will learn to help shape the design and manufacturing processes of microlectronics, control systems, signal processing systems, and other technologies that impact our daily lives.
Electrical engineering technology curriculum has electronic technology, and computer technology tracks. As a student in this field, you're introduced to computer hardware and software, automatic control programming and implementation, robotic control, and modern instrumentation and sensors. This program will prepare you to design, program, and install all types of electrical instrumentation as well as computers and their networks.
There are many professional career paths in the fields of electrical engineering and computer science.

The University of Cincinnati College of Engineering and Applied Science (CEAS) Cleanroom has been a key factor in elevating UC’s stature in the field of semiconductors and micro/nano fabrication processes. The laboratory houses lithography, deposition, etching, and electrical and optical characterization tools for micro and nano fabrication. It serves as one of the core facilities for semiconductors, sensors, micro electromechanical systems, and other materials and devices used by multiple researchers across the campus and outside of UC. It also serves as an educational center for training a future semiconductor workforce, as well as a resource for the university and surrounding business community.
