ECSE Department Programs What Is? Electrical Engineering – the application of the laws of physics governing electricity, magnetism, and light to develop products and services for the benefit of humankind. Computer Engineering – the design, construction, implementation, and maintenance of computers and computer controlled equipment for the benefit of humankind. Power Engineering – the design, construction, implementation and maintenance of devices, materials and systems for the safe, reliable and economic generation, transmission, distribution, conversion, measurement and control of electric energy for the benefit of humankind.
