A
little about EE&CS...
The Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science is a
learning community dedicated to the education of cadets. Our
Faculty and Staff are a diverse group of the friendliest, most competent and
energetic people you will ever meet. Our courses are current, relevant,
and challenging. Our laboratories are fully equipped and carefully
maintained. Graduates of
our nationally accredited programs can rightly claim that their
undergraduate background ranks among the very best.
The EE&CS Team shares a commitment to the Army ethos and the vision and
goals established by the Dean and Superintendent of the United States
Military Academy. This page describes the foundations for the
great work we do every
day.
Eugene K. Ressler
Head of the Department
The EE&CS Mission
Educate and inspire cadets to be leaders of character, prepared to think critically and apply engineering and technology expertise as Army Officers.
Shared Vision
The Army’s premier source of information technology, electrical engineering, and computer science education for Army officers; sustaining a culture where cadets, faculty, and staff members are inspired to achieve their full potential; recognized for contributions to the Academy, the Army, and our disciplines.
Core Values
We base our unique values on the Army's: Loyalty, Duty, Respect, Selfless Service, Honor, Integrity, and Personal Courage. To these we add...
Goals

- Our teaching makes cadets responsible for their own development in an environment of exceptional resources, guidance, and encouragement to succeed.
- Our programs are nationally accredited and highly regarded within the community of college education.
- Our faculty and staff are a diverse team of professionals, each making his or her personal best contribution to our mission and valuing the contributions of others.
- Our climate prizes initiative, innovation, and accomplishment for the department team, underpinned by enthusiasm for learning in all our disciplines.
- Our centers of excellence integrate externally resourced, Army-relevant research and outreach projects with cadet education and faculty professional development.
- Our organization is kind and fair to people, assigning work equitably, honoring preference, rewarding excellence, enabling continued professional success.
- Our support activities provide a practically constraint-free environment for accomplishing the mission.
Some facts and figures...
Our department is 71 great people with exceptionally diverse skills and backgrounds. Our classrooms see about 1,800 cadets per year. We operate 28 laboratories including computer, electronic, power, photonic, microwave, VLSI design, and other types, most of them seating 18 cadets, which is our maximum class size. We have a first rate technology infrastructure tied together by a network fast-approaching 100% gigabit speed. Our fabrication shop can build nearly anything, and we have great softball, basketball, and volleyball teams.
