Program Educational Objectives and Outcomes

The BYU Electrical and Computer Engineering Department has established objectives for the accomplishments of alumni in the years after graduation, as well as learning outcomes that define the skills and knowledge students should have at the time of graduation. These goals are primarily oriented towards the undergraduate program, but are of value in understanding the mission of the graduate program and the department as a whole.
