The Department of Electrical Engineering Science was created and placed in the College of Physical and Engineering Sciences in 1957. Previously, Electrical Engineering Science was a field of study within the Department of Engineering Sciences. The Department Chairs were Jens J. Jonsson (1957-1960), Darrel J. Monson (1960-1966), and Ferril A. Losee (1966-1978). In 1973 the College of Engineering Sciences and Technolgy was created and the Department of Electrical Engineering Science was placed within that college. In 1977 the department was renamed the Department of Electrical Engineering.
