The Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Ben Gurion University of the Negev was established in 1971. The Department offers both undergraduate and graduate programs in a wide range of subjects that encompass practical and theoretical aspects of electrical and computer engineering. The department has currently about 800 undergraduate and 200 graduate students towards the B.Sc. and the MSc. or Ph.D. degrees, respectively. The Department is equipped with enhanced laboratory, computer, teaching, and research facilities.
Areas of specialization of faculty members include: Computers, Communication theory, Signal and image processing, System and control theory, Electro-Optics, Electromagnetic radiation, Power systems, and Electronic-devices and Circuits.
The major objective of the program for graduate studies is to provide qualified engineers opportunities to expand their research skills and specialize in specific subjects within the comprehensive field of electrical and computer engineering. Students graduating with an MSc degree with thesis are well equipped for research and development industrial managerial positions. A substantial number of these students are qualified for PhD studies. The teaching and research fields for graduate studies include: Communications, Energy Conversion, Medical Systems, Micro-Electronics, Control and Robotics, Signal and Image Processing, Computer Engineering, Electromagnetics and wave theory, Electro-Optics, Magnetic Instrumentation and Non-Linear Electronics, Bio-Engineering Systems, Neural Networks, Target Acquisition, Infrared Systems, and Engineering Power Electronics.
