E-Day 2026 in Electrical and Computer Engineering

E-Day, 10AM-2PM February 28, 2026
Electrical and Computer Engineering

Welcome to the Electrical and Computer Engineering E-Day 2026 Open House self-guided tour! We are the departmental home of the Electrical Engineering BS, MS, and PhD programs and the Computer Engineering BS program. We also work with the Computer Science department to offer Computer Engineering MS and PhD programs. Here is a convenient list of ECE-related exhibits, where they are, and the age group for which each is most appropriate. Each exhibit is color coded for age: Any age, Middle School and up, High School and up.
