Department Advisory Committee
The Electrical Engineering Department Advisory Committee (DAC) is an independent body that advises and supports our faculty. The committee ensures courses remain relevant to practicing electrical engineers, provides strategic guidance on our department’s educational objectives and missions, updates faculty and students with information on industry practices, and assists our graduates’ placement.
The support of our committee members and the connection between industry and education is critical to the effectiveness of the EE Department. Through continual development and improvement of the program’s curriculum, the DAC is helping our department achieve its mission of educating the next generation of world-class engineers.
