Welcome
Welcome to ECEโs Departmental Portal, which strives to bring all applicable departmental information into one accessible and efficient locale for students, faculty and staff alike.
The technology powering electric vehicles, clean energy and aerospace was largely developed right here in North Carolina. NC State is where that work continues.
We`re launching the Master of Science in Wide Bandgap Semiconductors this fall, the first program of its kind, designed for engineers ready to lead in SiC, GaN and the systems they power.
Applications close June 25.

Neil Sood stood in front of the NC State ECE Class of 2026 and told the truth about what four years actually felt like.
Midnight hours in Hunt Library so sleep-deprived that normal sentences became hilarious. Four days chasing a breakthrough in the 306 lab. Moments of wondering whether he belonged in the major at all.
He framed all of it through three things Jimmy Valvano said everyone should do every day: laugh, think and let your emotions move you.
"In the end, that`s what NC State gave us more than any degree. The space to laugh, the time and obligation to learn and a community to lean on."

"I never could have predicted that that quiet undergrad in my networking class would later become my CEO."
Kim Hazelwood said it plainly. Technical excellence matters. But trust is the currency that keeps opening doors long after your first job, your first team and your first pivot.
"Talent may open the first door. Trust is what keeps opening doors after that."
