The Department of Electrical Engineering at USF has 25 tenure-track/tenured faculty members and 3 professors of instruction hailing from some of the finest institutions in the country. Among these faculty we have NSF CAREER Award winners, Fellows of the IEEE, AAAS, AIMBE, and Distinguished University Professors. Many serve in national leadership roles in technical societies, such as the IEEE, and have industry experience to complement their academic backgrounds. This diversity in our faculty enriches the learning experiences of our students. The Department of Electrical Engineering offers B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees and serves approximately 500 undergraduate students, 70 M.S., students and 70 Ph.D. students. Our faculty are active in research areas spanning machine learning applications in IoT, computer vision, wireless communications, nano/microfabrication, RF MEMS and IC’s, radar, wireless and microwave systems, renewable energy source integration and smart grid automation, cybersecurity, data analytics, systems and control theory, robotics, electronic materials for sensors and energy applications, and more. Substantial collaborations with CyberFlorida, the Institute of Applied Engineering, and Moffitt Cancer Center are part of the department’s growing research activities. Average research expenditures for the last five years are approx. $5.0 million per year.
