The Chandra Family Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering offers some of the most prestigious electrical and computer engineering programs in the world. We are consistently ranked among the Top 10 programs in the country. We believe in hands-on, project-based learning. From the moment you step on campus you will be learning by doing. We will prepare you to be innovators who will have a profound effect on engineering research and industry. When you leave Texas ECE, we want you to be prepared to find solutions to the global challenges facing our society.

State-of-the-Art Facilities

While UT Austin is a large place, Texas ECE is a close-knit community sharing a home base in the Engineering and Education and Research Center built in 2017. 

Global Experiences

We also strongly value global perspectives, so we offer a number of short-term summer study abroad classes that are taught by UT Austin faculty and count toward degree requirements. Recent study abroad programs have taken place in England, Portugal and Italy, among other countries.
