Electrical Engineering Application

The electrical engineering program at UVU is an engaging and challenging major that prepares students for exciting careers and graduate programs in the field of electrical engineering. Students begin their study by completing a series of foundational courses in math, science, computer science, and engineering. After successful completion of these foundational courses and before enrolling in upper-division (3000-level or higher) major courses, students need to apply and be accepted to the electrical engineering program. A student not meeting all the admission requirements may be admitted with provisional status for one semester.

Applications for admission to the electrical engineering program are accepted until two weeks prior to the start of a new semester. We encourage you to apply as early as possible.

Before Applying to the UVU EE Program

  1. Apply to Utah Valley University

    Acceptance to UVU is required prior to submitting an application to any UVU engineering program. Application to the university can be done online at the UVU admissions page. This includes transferring all credits from other institutions. All UVU deadlines and fees apply. Students are encouraged to apply to UVU early so all transfer credits can be evaluated before the ECE department application deadlines. In order to graduate from UVU, students will be required to meet all UVU graduation requirements.

  2. Foundational Coursework

    Complete foundational course work. A final grade of C or higher is required.

    Math

    MATH 1210 - Calculus I

    MATH 1220 - Calculus II

    MATH 2210 - Calculus III

    Physics

    PHYS 2210/2215 - Physics for Scientists & Engineers I & Lab

    PHYS 2220/2225 - Physics for Scientists & Engineers II & Lab

    Computer Science

    CS 1400 - Fundamentals of Programming

    Engineering

    ECE 1000 - Intro to Electrical and Computer Engineering

    ECE 2700/2705 - Digital Design & Lab

    ECE 2250/2255 - Circuit Theory & Lab

    Students may apply to the program if they have not completed all foundational coursework. A provisional admission to the program is possible. However, students will not be allowed to take professional engineering courses (3000 and higher) if the prerequisites are not met. It is recommended that students meet all prerequisite coursework required prior to applying for admission.

  3. Maintain at least a 2.5 GPA

  4. Meet with Academic Advisor

    Your advisor will assist with your application, upload your unofficial transcript, upload transfer credits awarded (if applicable), and create and upload a Wolverine Track graduation plan.

  5. Submit an Engineering Application

  6. Meet with ECE Faculty Mentor

    Meet with an ECE faculty mentor to review your application and graduation plan.

  7. Notification of Decisions

    Students will be notified via their myUVU email (indicated in application) about admissions decisions.
