Villanova University, the only Augustinian Catholic university in the nation, was founded in 1842 by the Order of Saint Augustine in Villanova, Pennsylvania, just 12 miles west of Philadelphia. A dynamic national institution—classified as a Doctoral University by the Carnegie Foundation and ranked among the top 50 by U.S. News & World Report—Villanova provides a comprehensive education rooted in the liberal arts; a shared commitment to the Augustinian ideals of truth, unity and love; and a community dedicated to service to others. The College of Engineering’s success in living up to these ideals has made us one of the most respected engineering programs in the country, and our commitment to those values is evident in our excellent faculty and staff, innovative academic programs, cutting edge research and extensive service opportunities, which leave an impact on the world.
Villanova University’s Center for Engineering Education and Research (CEER) is expanding its footprint on campus with a 150,000 square foot addition to be completed by Fall 2024. The CEER expansion is an ambitious and forward-looking project developed through a collaborative process with input from engineering faculty and students. In addition to creating a new home for the entire engineering community, the expansion will impact and elevate every aspect of the College’s academic and student experience with improved and expanded research facilities focused on interdisciplinary connections and state-of-the-art instruction spaces for hands-on, problem-oriented and team-based learning.
Inspired by the Augustinian-Catholic tradition, we value an inclusive and diverse community in which we prepare our students to demonstrate the highest ethical conduct and contribute to the well-being of humankind. The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering and the College of Engineering are deeply committed to work-life balance and family-friendly programs for our faculty. Villanova is located 12 miles from Philadelphia along the historic Main Line. From its founding in 1842 to its position today as a nationally recognized leading university, Villanova has forged a path of academic excellence. Villanova University is a Carnegie-classified doctoral university, and the ECE faculty are recognized for exceptional research as evident by our faculty, which includes three IEEE Fellows, a winner of the prestigious Humboldt prize, a Fulbright Distinguished Chair, three IEEE Distinguished Lecturers, and winners of prestigious federal (NSF Career, NIH-R01, etc.) and industry (L3Harris, Delta Information, etc.) grant programs. The department has 20 full-time faculty members, with approximately 298 undergraduate students and 106 graduate students. We are committed to providing a rigorous educational experience in the discipline of electrical and computer engineering, graduating well-rounded leaders and life-long learners, who aspire to achieving professional excellence. We are equally committed to the discovery, dissemination, advancement and application of cutting-edge research. In return, our dedicated teacher-scholars enjoy a work-life balance and family-friendly programs that forge a sense of community.
