Residential Electrical Engineering Degree

Challenge yourself with a degree that gives you the skills you’ll need for a successful career in Electrical Engineering.

Gain both critical and systematic thinking capabilities through the B.S. in Electrical Engineering from Liberty University. Here, you’ll not only learn how to build physical, working devices and systems, but also how to design complex systems through an abstraction and system approach.

At Liberty, experienced Christian professors use an interactive approach in teaching students through small class settings. Our primary goal is to develop Christ-centered men and women with the values, knowledge, and skills necessary to positively influence electrical engineering related industries.

Products and services provided through electrical engineering have had a profound impact on our society – from electrical power systems to computers and communication systems such as the internet and smartphones. As our society moves towards closer integration between the cyber and physical realms, electrical engineers will help to improve the quality of life through the design and building of systems and infrastructure.
