Electrical engineers are engaged in research, design, development and production associated with a wide variety of electrical devices and systems. Examples include electronic circuit design and fabrication, and the design and application of communications systems, computers, and power systems. Opportunities exist for electrical engineers in industry, government and education.
At Carleton University, students following the program in Electrical Engineering will take courses from the Departments of Electronics and Systems and Computer Engineering. Information on courses offered in the program may be obtained in the calendar sections for those two departments.
The First year of the Engineering program provides a broad common background of technical fundamentals. The next three years of Electrical Engineering concentrate primarily on electronics, telecommunications and computers. The wide selection of Fourth year electives tends to reflect the technology-driven industry in the Ottawa area. Integrated circuit design and fabrication, telecommunications systems, and computer software are specializations which are particularly well covered at Carleton. Students may choose elective courses from the list of specializations given below.
