Research

Laboratories

The EE Department is made up of five laboratories:

• Computer Systems Laboratory (CSL)
• Information Systems Laboratory (ISL)
• Integrated Circuits Laboratory (ICL)
• Solid State and Photonics Laboratory (SSPL)
• Space, Telecommunications and Radioscience Laboratory (STARLab)

The EE Department Executive Committee is made up of the Directors of the five Laboratories together with the Chair, Vice Chair, Associate Chair, and Assistant Chair.
