BSc in Engineering - Electrical Engineering (Martin Campus) in Martin United States | University of Tennessee, Knoxville

The Department of Engineering enables students to acquire comprehensive expertise in a demanding discipline that opens doors to professional careers across numerous specialties. The engineering curriculum provides a Bachelor of Science in Engineering (BSE) with specializations in civil, computer, electrical manufacturing, and mechatronics, along with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering (BSME). These programs stress core principles of engineering design, balancing theoretical knowledge with practical implementation enhanced through hands-on lab work and real-world projects. Students are required to pass the Fundamentals of Engineering Examination (FE), marking the initial phase in achieving licensure as a Professional Engineer.

Electrical engineering focuses on designing, developing, testing, and overseeing the production of electronic and electrical devices, such as electric motors, lighting systems, building wiring, radar, computers, consumer electronics, aircraft, and telephones. Today, numerous electrical engineers are also engaged in computer design and programming. The field can be divided into various sub-disciplines, including power, control, signal processing, telecommunications, electronics, and electromagnetic engineering. Our alumni are employed by local and regional utility companies, defense contractors, electronic design firms, and manufacturing enterprises.
