Student Laboratories


Teaching Labs overview

Laboratory experience is a vital part of an electrical engineering student's education. The department has received several significant grants from the state of Utah and private industry for acquiring instructional laboratory equipment. Consequently, our laboratories are equipped to meet or exceed the needs of our students. These laboratory facilities, provide an imaginative and exciting complement to classroom instruction. The laboratories described below illustrate our excellent facilities.
