Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering

Small-scale technologies have significantly altered the way we lead our lives. These technologies have made computers and modern electronics, including cell phones, TVs,  and digital music players, widely available and affordable. Although the impact has already been impressive, the story is far from over: small-scale technologies have found new impetus from the MEMS and nanotechnology initiatives. The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering recognizes the need to more fully understand and exploit the full potential of small-scale technologies. The Microelectronics Research Center and Keck Lab are being utilized to meet this objective.
