Facilities

The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering is located primarily in the Engineering Building. Most optics-related research facilities and faculty are in the adjacent Optics Building. Technology Hall provides some space for Computer Engineering instruction and research, including the CRASH Laboratory.

The University maintains science and engineering collections in its main library, adequate for most needs. In addition, the excellent Redstone Arsenal Library is available to faculty and students who are US citizens.

Students and faculty have access to a variety of minicomputers and workstations. All the departments offices contain at least one PC and all the departmental laboratories are equipped with PCs and/or unix workstations. Primarily, the department supports PC and unix systems. However, there are a wide variety of systems within the ECE department.
