Facts and Figures
The UCI Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science has two key goals:
• Advance the minds of future leaders by providing the finest education to our students
• Consistently meet industry needs by developing cutting-edge technology
EECS, home to more than 50 percent of the engineering student body, has internationally renowned faculty who are all top experts in their fields. The department is committed to an integrated view of the electrical engineering field – ranging from microscopic (and even nanoscale) devices all the way to architectures, communications and software design – everything from electrons to programs.
More than 30 research groups focus on areas as diverse as embedded systems, computer networks, middleware, real-time systems, micro-electro-mechanical systems and nanotechnology, communication systems, machine intelligence, and neural and soft computing. Mathematical and natural sciences are applied to the theory, design and implementation of devices and systems for the benefit of our society.
