Bachelor of Engineering in Engineering Science - Electronics Engineering

SUNY Stony Brook University

Engineering Science is the study and application of physical sciences and mathematics to support engineering design, research and technological advancement. It stands at the core of research and development in today’s rapidly evolving ''high-tech'' industries, and informs the complex design process necessary to respond to emerging needs, such as alternative energy generation, superdense data storage, nanotechnology-based sensors for homeland security, environmental clean up and sustainable development. In order to prepare students for employment in these high technology fields or graduate study in related areas, the Engineering Science major is both thorough enough to provide a strong background and flexible enough to respond to diverse student needs and a rapidly-evolving workplace. It provides a hands-on approach to real-world engineering problem solving, as well as opportunities for students to explore the leading edge of technological innovation with state-of-the-art tools. The major in Engineering Science (ESG) furnishes the student with a broad background in the basic engineering disciplines, and a multidisciplinary approach to both design and engineering research. It is designed for those who want a more flexible engineering education than that available from conventional engineering programs. The core program includes an extensive design experience that builds upon fundamental concepts and matches the requirements of professional practice. Courses chosen for the core program have been carefully selected to enhance student learning in research, design and communication.
