Electrical Engineering Academy at TU
Summer Electrical Engineering Academy will be held July 6th through July 10th, 2009.
The Summer Electrical Engineering Academy at The University of Tulsa for Precollege Students is a commuter academy that makes students aware of careers in electrical engineering through hands-on design projects, seminars, industry professional interaction, and company tours.
High school teachers receive training and assist the investigators with the academy’s activities.The teachers are supported in implementing academy exercises within their classrooms. The goal is to attract more Oklahoma students into engineering to meet Oklahoma technical employer needs.
The faculty of the Academy includes professors from the Electrical Engineering Department at TU and several high school teachers. The teachers receive training prior to the academy and use this training to help students with the academy’s activities. Teachers also receive support to implement the academy exercises, or similar ones, within their classrooms. The director is Peter LoPresti, (918)-631-3274, or peter-lopresti@utulsa.edu.

The mission of the Department of Electrical Engineering is to provide a modern, high quality educational experience for all our students. We provide the knowledge and principles on which electrical engineering is founded in order to graduate engineers who are technically competent, creative, articulate, and socially aware.
The Department of Electrical Engineering offers a curriculum leading to a B.S. degree which includes a strong foundation in the electrical, system, computer, mathematical, and physical sciences. The primary objective for the Electrical Engineering department is to prepare graduates to engage successfully in the practice of electrical engineering by obtaining employment or admission to graduate school.
