The Electrical and Computer Engineering Student Advisory Board (ECE-SAB) was founded on April 2001.
The mission of the ECE-SAB is to provide an organized forum for interaction between undergraduate students and the faculty. Its principal function is to provide education assessment of our EE and CE programs and to identify needs within the ECE Department. Examples of the ECE-SAB function are but not limited to:
- Assessing the delivery of our undergraduate curriculum and services
- Discussing student issues
- Identifying areas where improvements may be warranted
- Obtaining rapid feedback about the impact of implemented changes
The ECE-SAB will consist of two representatives from each major, including the biomedical engineering option, class, the ECE Chair, and Undergraduate Committee chair. The ECE-SAB meets at least twice a year and the members have the opportunity to meet with the ECE Industrial Advisory Board. The minutes of the ECE-SAB meetings are maintained in the department and are available for review and are shared with the appropriate faculty committees.
The Electrical and Computer Engineering Graduate Student Advisory Board (ECE-SAB) was founded on February 2022.
