General Purpose
To support instruction, study and research leading to the B.S., M.S., and
Ph.D in Electrical and Computer Engineering.
Subject Description
The program emphasizes the following subject areas: circuit theory,
computer engineering, communications, digital systems, solid-state electronics,
electro-optics, image processing, microwaves, electromagnetic theory, plasma
engineering, power systems, and control systems.
Overlap with Other Subjects
Electrical and Computer Engineering overlaps with nuclear engineering,
computer science, mechanical engineering, and physics.
Languages Collected and Excluded
English is the primary language. Secondary languages include Western
European languages, Chinese, Japanese, and Russian which are acquired selectively
depending on research and project needs.
Geographic Parameters
Primarily publications from the United States and Great Britain are
acquired with less emphasis on those from Western Europe and Japan. Materials
from other areas are considered selectively.
Chronological Scope
Emphasis is on current research.
Dates of Publication
Current publications are collected.
Retrospective Acquisitions
Retrospective purchases are considered only under special circumstances,
i.e., for new programs where basic materials (monographs, serials, and
periodicals) are needed to update the collection.
Types of Materials Collected and Excluded
With the general exception of textbooks, laboratory manuals and
dissertations, scholarly publications of all types are collected.
Formats of Materials Collected and Excluded
In addition to traditional print formats, all other formats are considered.
Cooperation with Other Libraries
Cooperative agreements are in effect with the Tennessee Valley Authority
and Martin Marietta Energy Systems.
Alternative Access to Resources
Interlibrary loan is a resource to materials not in the collection.
