Electricity itself was still a novelty when Cornell University introduced the nation's (and the world's) first course of study in electrical engineering in 1883. Now, the reach of electrical and computer engineering extends from the nanoscale level of integrated electronics to terrestrial-scale power grids; from single-transistor devices to networks comprising a billion nodes.
The School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Cornell University remains at the forefront of our field, educating and training the next generation of engineers driving the leading edge of technology, and offering three nationally-ranked academic degree programs.
