Welcome to ECE - Electrical and Computer Engineering
Electrical and Computer Engineering
The fields of electrical and computer engineering span a broad swath of leading-edge technology which impacts most facets of the Defense Department's war fighting capabilities.
- Our Department provides graduate education programs designed to increase the combat effectiveness of U.S. Naval Officers.
- Our students include commissioned officers of the Naval Service, other U.S. and allied armed forces, civilian employees of the Defense Department and international defense establishments. Civilian employees of DoD contractors are also eligible to attend NPS in limited numbers.
Providing unique and advanced education
ECE faculty expertise covers diverse areas such as communications, computers, control systems, networks & cyber, electronic warfare, nanotechnology, power electronics, and signal processing.
Providing hands-on research opportunities

Providing DON relevant research opportunities
ECE research, sponsored through the Center for Multi-INT Studies (CMIS), utilizes a database of Automatic Identification System (AIS) reports to extract historical maritime transit patterns with the goal of identifying ship traffic patterns.
Developing new technology
Prof. David Jenn holds his recently patented Dipole with an Unbalanced Microstrip Feed antenna. This tiny “rectenna” captures ambient em waves and converts them to usable current.
- Our Department offers Master of Sciences (MSEE, MSES, MSCE), Master of Engineering, Electrical Engineer, Ph.D. Degree Programs, and graduate certificate programs.
- Our MSEE Degree Program is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET.
