What is ECE?
ECE at WPI •  20 full-time faculty
•  ~300 undergrads, ~200 grad students
•  ~85 BS, 35 MS, 4 PhD annually
•  Innovative, project-based undergraduate program with a focus on
innovation, creativity and teamwork
•  Project/research activity with
Analog Devices, General Dynamics,
Texas Instruments, Intel, BAE Systems,
Raytheon ...
•  Very active graduate research
program that integrates undergrads into
many of the projects
Holy Name High School Wind Turbine that resulted from an ECE Undergraduate Project Welcome to the ECE Department
State of the Art, Student Centered
•  Modern, well equipped and well
maintained laboratories.
•  Projects and laboratory experiences
that are “real” and make a difference.
•  A strong advising system.
•  Focus on teamwork.
•  Friendly, supportive community.
•  Active student groups: IEEE, HKN, WECE
Spark Party (coming up soon on November 14!)
•  Atwater Kent open 24:7 for student use.
•  Cost effective BS/MS program.
Computer and Embedded
Systems Laboratory.
Focus Areas within ECE
•  Computers/Microprocessor systems
•  Microelectronics Circuits
•  Electromagnetics, Antennas
•  Satellite and Indoor Positioning
Systems
•  Power Electronics and Systems
•  Data Security, Cryptography
•  Communications, Wireless
Networking
•  Software Defined Radios (SDRs)
•  Biomedical Signal Processing,
Advanced Prosthetics
•  Robotic Systems and Sensors
ECE Labs
Computer Engineering or Computer Science??
•  Hardware + Software vs.
Software
•  Engineering vs. Science
•  Computer scientists discover
underlying principles of computation:
logic, language, knowledge
organization, intelligence…
•  Computer engineers use these
principles to solve problems in
hardware and software involving an
enormous number of applications,
products and devices using embedded
processors and DSPs
Finding Your Path
•  Strategy for Planning your Courses
–  “I’m not sure what I like best in ECE …”
•  Sample different areas
•  Build breadth to inform decision
•  Eventually go in depth for good MQP background
–  “I know I want to do …”
•  Go in depth as soon as possible!
•  Fill in breadth later for solid ECE-wide background
•  Tools
–  Program Flowchart
•  Find courses, paths in areas of interest
–  Program Tracking Sheet
•  Meet all catalog requirements for graduation
ECE Program Tracking Sheet
–  Use with advisor to make sure you meet all catalog requirements
–  Take advantage of flexibility to tailor program to your interests!

NOTES: Minimum total academic credit = 15 units
HUMANITIES AND ARTS REQUIREMENT (2 units)
Expected Graduation Date:
2nd Major:
Residency Req.: Min. of 8 units must be completed at WPI
ENGINEERING SCIENCE AND DESIGN REQUIREMENT (6 units)
Breadth Component: Students must take at least one course outside
the grouping in which they complete their depth component. To
identify breadth, courses are grouped in the following manner:
i. art/art history, drama/theatre, and music (AR, EN/TH, MU);
ii. foreign languages (SP, GN, AB, CN);
iii. literature and writing/rhetoric (EN, WR, RH);
iv. history and international studies (HI, HU);
v. philosophy and religion (PY, RE).
Exception: May take all six courses in a foreign language

First Year
§  Suggested ECE Courses
§  Start with ECE2010: overview of all aspects of ECE
§  Option to follow interest immediately or continue sampling different
areas within ECE
§  Examples on following slides
§  Suggest filling in Math, Science, CS necessary for ECE courses
§  Suggest making progress toward your Humanities & Arts (HUA)
Requirement
§  Social Science requirement: If you go off-campus for IQP, you will take
ID2050 which counts as 1 of 2 courses for social science requirement.
Required Math, Science
Total of 12 math, science courses required for ECE major:
•  Math (at least 7)
–  MA1021-4 Calc I – IV
–  MA2051 Differential
Equations
–  MA2621 Probability
–  MA2071 Matrices and Linear
Algebra
•  Physics (at least 2)

–  PH1120/PH1121 Electricity
and Magnetism
–  PH1130 Modern Physics
–  PH1140 Oscillations and
Waves
•  Chemistry or Biology (at least 1 of either)
•  And any 2 math/science course (MA, PH, CH, BB, GE)
Required Engineering
Total of 15 ECE course equivalent required for major:
•  MQP (3 course equivalents)
-  Usually includes capstone design (but needs to be covered
separately in case of research MQPs; check with MQP advisor)
-  Must take ECE2799 as preparation for MQP
•  12 ECE Courses at 2000-level or above
- At least 3 “EE” courses; at least 2 “CE” courses
Plus 3 additional engineering courses:
•  1 Computer Science (2000-level or above)
–  Usually CS2301 (C programming)
•  1 “ES” course at 2000 level or above
–  Usually ES2001 (Materials) or ES2501 (Static Systems)
–  Not ES3011 [Controls] which counts as an ECE course
•  1 other course at 2000 level or above from any engineering
–  Some courses excluded; check catalog
Second Year
§  Suggested ECE Courses
§  Depend on path in 2010, basic courses; examples on following slides
§  Suggest completing your Humanities & Arts (HUA) Requirement
§  Suggest completing CS Requirement
§  Usually CS2301 (System Programming for Non-majors; prep for ECE2049)
§  If you are interested in an off-campus IQP during your junior year, you must
apply by September of your second year.
§  If you are interested in a summer internship, start looking during your second
year
§  ECE2799 ECE Design: “Mini-MQP” in 7 weeks
§  Can be taken as early as D term of second year
§  OK to wait until junior year; MUST complete before MQP
§  Key: at least 3 of ECE2019, 2311, 2029, 2049 to contribute to project team
