The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering maintains strong ties to external constituents, including local and national industry, alumni, and professional friends. One way we benefit from these relationships is through our External Advisory Council.

EAC members serve informally as ECE ambassadors, provide guidance and suggestions, participate in ECE events, and provide career advice to our students.

The Council meets annually in Bozeman, and also provides regular feedback and referrals throughout the year.
