BA/BS in Electrical, Electronics, and Communications Engineering

The Electrical and Computer Engineering major at the Virginia Military Institute leads to a Bachelor of Science and holds ABET accreditation from its engineering commission. It pairs a firm theoretical base with practical training across electrical and computer engineering. The department emphasizes design, problem solving, integrity and professionalism, and its courses give graduates flexibility in the paths they can take afterward. A program overview, stated objectives and year-by-year course planning are published for cadets. Qualified students may apply for departmental honors once they reach their third class year, subject to grade point thresholds. A computer engineering minor is also offered through the department, combining required courses with a choice of a C/C++ or Java sequence. Cadets can review the published course planning pages to see how the sequence of study fits together before choosing the major.
