Research
The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is one of the largest research institutions in the world and ECE is a major contributor to the research that takes place on campus.
ECE researchers collaborate with industry, government, peer institutions, and each other in the search for solutions. And, graduate students and undergraduates participate in a broad array of projects ranging from Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) to Very-Large-Scale Integration (VLSI).
The following categories are a very broad representation of the research conducted by ECE Illinois faculty and students:
