MIT Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Department

The Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Department at MIT offers academic programs leading to the S.B., S.M., M.Eng. and Ph.D. degrees. Its faculty conducts research in Biomedical Engineering, Materials Science, Artificial Intelligence, Nanotechnology, Operations Research and many other fields.

In MIT's system of numbering departments, EECS is known as "Course 6" or "Course VI".

History

Subjects relating to Electrical Engineering were initially taught by the physics faculty. In 1902, the Institute set up a separate Electrical Engineering department.
