For example, if the last review occurred in 1993 and this review is AY 2000-2001, then data should include AY 1993 through Fall 2000. ♦ Self-studies should be housed on your web site. 4 Section 1: Departmental Overview and Mission Please respond to the following items: 1. State the mission, goals and objectives of your department. The mission of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Wayne State University is to: Provide graduate students with outstanding academic and research experiences and to prepare them to meet the needs and challenges in electrical and computer engineering. Our primary goal is to be one of the premier programs in providing education and cutting-edge research experiences to prepare our graduate students for careers in industry, academia and the public sector. To advance this mission and achieve our goal we strive to the following objectives: • To provide faculty and students with an environment that is conducive to carrying out cutting-edge research and excellence in teaching. • To provide graduate students with focused instruction and research experiences in preparation for careers in industry, academia and the public sector. • To provide support needed for faculty to become and continue to be scholars, educators and innovative researchers. • To provide graduate students the opportunity to participate in professional projects, including internships with industry, for professional careers in industry. • To instill graduate students with the desire for life-long learning, innovation and creativity for advancement of the engineering discipline. 5 2. Describe governance, structure, and organization of your unit. The department is governed with active participation of the faculty in policy making, and in decisions affecting academic programs, curriculum, and future directions for research. Faculty meetings are held regularly (approximately once a month) to discuss important issues and challenges facing the department and try to build consensus on how these issues should be tackled. Matters of more routine or mundane nature are usually communicated by the chair to the faculty through e-mail messages, informing them of items of importance and seeking input/feedback as necessary. All-important decisions are put on record in the form of meeting minutes, or action items. Besides the formal interaction between the chair and faculty at the meetings, extensive informal interactions regularly take place through office visitations and individual discussions. The department chair administers the departmental budget, assigns workloads to faculty, and signs all academic, personnel, budget, and other administrative paperwork. The department is assisted by a full-time administrative assistant (Mary Anna Blair), full-time secretary II (Charles Alexander), a part-time graduate advisor shared with IME (Gail Evans), a full-time technician (Amir Husak) and seventeen half-time graduate teaching assistants (on general fund). Several student assistants are also employed by the department (on soft-money) to help with administrative functions such as reception, filing, word processing, grading homework, laboratory reports, etc. The chair supervises activities of all departmental personnel. Three standing committees in the department are elected by the faculty each year: (1) Tenure and Promotion (T&P) Committee, (2) Salary (Personnel Evaluation) Committee, and (3) Budget Committee. The chair heads all committees; without vote on T&P, and with vote on the others. The departmental Salary Committee determines the unit-select portion of the faculty merit raises. With input from this committee, the chair provides recommendations to the dean regarding the relative merit raise to be awarded to individual faculty from the President/Dean’s pool. The Budget Committee provides advice to the Chair on departmental budget priority. Besides these committees, there are seventeen other committees: 1) Undergraduate, 2) Graduate, 3) Seminar, 4) Library, 5) IEEE faculty counselor, 6) ESFB representative, 7) College Executive Committee, 8) College AOC Committee, 9) College Academic Standards Committee, 10) College Computer Committee, 11) College Research Advisory Committee, 12) College Nomination Committee, 13) College Code of Ethics Committee, 14) College Math Committee, 15) Student Due Process Faculty Panel, 16) College Shop Committee, 17) College Faculty Budget Committee. Since the department is rather small (eighteen full time faculty and the chair), each faculty has to serve in two or more committees. This arrangement has served us very well over the years. The department elects or assigns representatives to standing or ad hoc College committees, and supplies members to standing or ad hoc University committees, as well. 6 Finally, the chairman is assisted by a departmental faculty member, appointed as Graduate Program Officer--GPO (to administer Ph.D. graduate admissions and programs). The department shares an Academic Advisor with Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering, whose primary role is to monitor the curricular requirements of the M.S. graduate students. She assists both the chair and the Graduate Program Officer when student information is needed, and interfaces with the University Office of Admissions and Records in matters related to admission, registration, and certification of graduation. From the academic standpoint, the department has the following specialty areas: systems & control, optics, computer systems, computer architectures, image processing, biomedical engineering, solid state & power electronics, smart sensors & VLSI. The full-time faculty teach undergraduate and graduate courses in their specialty areas, develop proposals, conduct research and supervise graduate students, and serve on departmental, college, university committees, as well as on local, national and international committees. In addition to full-time faculty, the department employs a few members of part-time/adjunct faculty members from local companies, who make valuable contributions to our academic program by teaching selected undergraduate and / or graduate courses. The department has an Industrial Advisory Committee composed of prominent members of the electrical and computer engineering community representing both the private and public sector. This group of 9 senior engineers meets twice a year with the department chair and the selected faculty, and provides guidance and advise on strategic matters related to curriculum, research, and fund-raising issues. Students participate in the activities of the student chapters of Institute of Electrical & Electronics Engineers (IEEE), Tau Beta Pi Honor Society, and Engineering Faculty & Student Board (EFSB). Faculty advisors provide guidance and supervision to these groups. 3. Describe how your unit interacts with other units within the university or with similar units in other universities (collaborative efforts, cooperative arrangements, etc.). Department faculty have a solid tradition of interdisciplinary activities within the university, outside the university, and with industry. For example, Dr. Hao Ying is collaborating with the School of Medicine

The inaugural IEEE Vision, Innovation, and Challenges Summit presents a unique opportunity to meet, mingle, and network with peers and some of the top technology “giants” in the world. We have created a dynamic one-day event to showcase the breadth of engineering by bringing innovators, visionaries, and leaders of technology to the Silicon Valley area to discuss what is imminent, to explore what is possible, and to discover what these emerging areas mean for tomorrow. The day sessions will look to the future of the industry and the impact engineers will have on serving the global community. The Summit’s activities culminate with this evening’s IEEE Honors Ceremony Gala. Tonight’s awards ceremony truly refl ects the universal nature of IEEE, as the visionaries and innovators we celebrate herald from around the world. We are proud of the collective technical prowess of our members and appreciate the rich diversity of the engineering, scientifi c, and technical branches in which our colleagues excel. At IEEE, we are focused on what is next—enabling innovation and the creation of new technologies.
