History

Department of Electrical Engineering (B.S., M.S., Ph.D.)

History

The Graduate Institute of Electrical Engineering was established in 1997 with a Master's degree program. The Department of Electrical Engineering was founded in 1999. Advanced program leading to a Ph.D. degree program was offered in 2002. Extensive master degree program was offered in 2003. The Graduate Institute of Electronic Engineering was consolidated in 2006. The department is now organized as a one-department-multiple-graduate-institute model for the purpose of university resources sharing. The Department is responsible for undergraduate teaching and administrative affairs. The graduate institutes are responsible for research and graduate student affairs. Majoring in EE has long been one of the preferred choices for high school students if they are interested in studying natural sciences or engineering. Therefore, students entering EE program have high quality. The faculty members are young and actively engaged in research. Research grants and contracts are awarded by governmental and institutions. IEEE or SCI papers about research contribution are published in journals by the faculty members. Research outcome together with teaching experience has made EE Department one of the most competitive departments of the University.

 

Facility

EE Department is currently housed on the second floor of Engineering Building with a total floor space of 3,000 square meters. There are 7 undergraduate laboratories, 14 graduate research laboratories, 14 faculty offices, and 6 classrooms. Computing facilities include personal computers and workstations are connected through high-speed networks.
