The electrical engineering curriculum provides an excellent background for either graduate study or employment. Undergraduate education in the department provides students with (1) fundamental knowledge in mathematics, physical sciences, and electrical engineering, (2) the opportunity to specialize in specific areas of interest or career aspiration, (3) intensive training in problem solving, laboratory skills, and design skills, and (4) a well-rounded education that includes communication skills, the ability to function well on a team, an appreciation for ethical behavior, and the ability to engage in lifelong learning. This education is meant to prepare students to thrive and to lead. It also prepares them to achieve the following two program educational objectives: (1) that graduates of the program have successful technical or professional careers and (2) that graduates of the program continue to learn and to adapt in a world of constantly evolving technology.

In consultation with their faculty advisers, students may petition for an ad hoc track tailored to their professional objectives. This may comprise graduate courses from established tracks, from across areas, and even from outside electrical engineering. The petition must justify how the selection of courses in the ad hoc track forms a coherent set of courses, and how the proposed ad hoc track serves the professional objectives. The petition must be approved by the faculty adviser and the departmental graduate adviser.

These strands unite in the incident with which Clancey begins his book, the Great Nobi Earthquake of 1891. Anxious to adopt Western knowledge as quickly as possible, Japan in previous years had imported British professors to staff an architecture program in a new school of engineering. For the British professors, and soon for their Japanese students as well, the contrast in building materials between Britain and Japan captured the cultural differences between the two civilizations. The British prized their native stone for its strength. The durability of buildings made of stone, even if later reduced to ruins, testified to the advanced state of the European civilizations that made them. The professors and their students saw wood, the main [End Page 133] structural material in Japanese buildings, as fragile. It embodied for them the poorly developed and weak state of Japanese civilization. The professors and their students set to work creating a strong new nation built of stone.
