Empowering the Multi-Disciplinary Engineers of Tomorrow
In an era where Artificial Intelligence and automation are redefining industrial boundaries, the demand for versatile engineers who can bridge the gap between physical systems and electronic control is at an all-time high. Braude College of Engineering’s Combined B.Sc. program in Electrical & Electronic Engineering and Mechanical Engineering offers a powerful, integrated curriculum designed to produce leaders for the high-tech, defense, and manufacturing sectors.
Our program equips students with a dual “toolbox,” enabling them to master the critical interface where mechanical design meets electronic control and sensing. This systemic approach is essential for leading R&D teams in global innovation hubs.
Degree Awarded
This is a rigorous, high-intensity program. Upon successful completion, graduates are awarded one integrated B.Sc. degree certificate in Electrical & Electronic and Mechanical Engineering.
Program Highlights & Specializations
The curriculum is strategically structured to cover the core pillars of both disciplines over 9 semesters (approx. 170 academic credits). Beyond the fundamentals, students specialize in cutting-edge technological domains:
Control Systems & Robotics: Focusing on the design, modeling, and control of dynamic systems, autonomous robotics, and integrated mechatronic systems.
Electro-Optics & Photonics: Merging optics with electrical engineering and Micro-Electromechanical Systems (MEMS), including advanced design using industry-standard Zemax software.
The Capstone Project
A cornerstone of the program is the Multi-Disciplinary Senior Design Project. Students tackle real-world industrial challenges by integrating mechanical development, optical sensing, and electronic control into a single cohesive solution.
These projects are often conducted in close collaboration with industry partners, providing students with hands-on experience in solving complex, multi-layered engineering problems.
Advanced Electives & Industry 4.0
To ensure our graduates remain at the forefront of technology, the program offers advanced elective courses in emerging fields:
Intelligence Systems: Machine Learning, Deep Learning, Computer Vision, and Internet of Things (IoT).
Advanced Manufacturing: 3D Printing, Autonomous Robots, and Electronics Packaging.
Aerospace Engineering: Aerial Robotics and Principles of Space Flight.
Academic Leadership
This program is a joint initiative of the Department of Electrical & Electronic Engineering and the Department of Mechanical Engineering, bringing together top-tier faculty and researchers dedicated to engineering excellence and national technological resilience.
