More information on our research lab is available here: http://www.netsciwis.com The NEWS research group is part of Wireless@VT, which is the largest wireless communications and networks research center in the USA, with over thirty faculty members participating and a hundred students in more than 50 research projects. The center has expertise in a variety of interdisciplinary research areas. The organization prides itself on creating graduates who excel in minds-on, hands-on, multidisciplinary and collaborative efforts. The group has an active Industrial Affiliates program that brings in collaborative industrial participation and baseline support funding. More information is at wireless.vt.edu. The ECE Department The ECE Department offers B.S., M.S., M.Eng., and Ph.D. degree programs in both Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering with enrollment of about 600 full-time undergraduate students and 500 graduate students. In addition to the main Blacksburg campus, an active research program and a full- and part-time graduate program are located in the National Capital Region (Washington, DC area), with 10 full-time ECE faculty who interact closely with faculty in Blacksburg. In the most recent US News & World Report rankings, our electrical engineering graduate program is ranked 19th and our computer engineering graduate program is ranked 18th. The ECE Department has over 75 tenured or tenure-track faculty members and external research expenditures exceeding $29 million annually. The department has programs that are among the nation's largest and strongest in power electronics, power systems, wireless communications and networking, space science and engineering, remote sensing, fiber optics and photonics, and computational biology. The department has additional emerging areas of strength in autonomous systems, biomedical applications, cybersecurity, embedded systems, and semiconductors. The department is the beneficiary of the Bradley Endowment which provides scholarships, fellowships, professorships, and other support for the department.
