Beschreibung des Programms

These are exciting times in electrical and computer engineering. Humanity is in the midst of a revolution that started with the harnessing of electric energy and has evolved to today’s ubiquitous access and use of information. Electrical and computer engineering occupy the leading role in driving this revolution.

Electrical and computer engineering provides the devices and methods to collect, process, communicate and store information. These fields of engineering also contribute fundamental technology to solve our society’s most pressing problems as the evolution towards electrification of infrastructure to address environmental challenges. Researchers in electrical and computer engineering have provided such advances as wireless access to the internet, super-fast communications across the world, control systems that deliver a man to the moon, portable computing devices, self-driving vehicles, robotics, the smart grid powered from renewable energy, and so much more.

The mission of the doctorate in electrical and computer engineering is to form the next generation of leaders in today's information age. You will become a successful independent researcher that thrives and enjoys a successful career in academia, industry, or government. Graduates of the program become members of the selected group of global experts pushing the boundaries of knowledge in electrical and computer engineering in order to bring the next wave of transformational advances to society.

We form researchers. Research is a craft that requires intellectual dexterity and educated creativity. As is the case with all crafts, where a student learns by working side-by-side with an expert in the craft, to become independent researchers students in the Ph.D. in electrical and computer engineering do research under the tutelage of the world-class researchers that make up our faculty. This research is often associated with some of the many centers and laboratories across RIT, including the Center for Human-aware AI and the Global Cybersecurity Institute.
