Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering - University of Washington Revenue and Competitors

The mission of the Electrical & Computer Engineering Department at the University of Washington is to nurture and develop tomorrow’s engineering leaders in an environment of excellence in discovery with visionary researchers, by providing world-class undergraduate and graduate education in Electrical & Computer Engineering; conducting high-impact research of technical influence and recognized excellence; and addressing and formulating engineering solutions to aspects of the largest challenges facing humanity in health, energy, the environment, and in people-centric systems. As electrical & computer engineering provides the essential ingredients that so many other fields rely upon – power, computation, communication, control, and measurement – and as ECE becomes more specialized in its support of new and interdisciplinary areas, these new areas grow to become sub-disciplines of ECE. Our small core curriculum has allowed students more credits to pursue senior level electives and capstone design courses which better support their technical focus and career aspirations.
