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.
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.
Complete foundational course work. A final grade of C or higher is required.
MATH 1210 - Calculus I
MATH 1220 - Calculus II
MATH 2210 - Calculus III
PHYS 2210/2215 - Physics for Scientists & Engineers I & Lab
PHYS 2220/2225 - Physics for Scientists & Engineers II & Lab
CS 1400 - Fundamentals of Programming
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.
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.
Meet with an ECE faculty mentor to review your application and graduation plan.
Students will be notified via their myUVU email (indicated in application) about admissions decisions.
