The Department of Electrical Engineering offers a wide range of power engineering courses at both the undergraduate and graduate level. Research is conducted as a joint effort between faculty in the Dept. of Electrical Engineering and Tandy School of Computer Science in critical infrastructure protection (security) for the smart grid and electric utility sector. The Institute for Information Security (iSec) is an inter-diciplinary group that investigates security and critical infrastructure protection. iSec is recognized by the US Security Agency (NSA) as a Center of Excellence in Research and Education.

iSec houses a working substation (using reduced voltage levels - 3KVA with 3-phase 208V input), with a control room (human-machine interface). The substation provides a real world platform for a Critical Infracture Protection course (Computer Science - graduate level) and research into substation automation and security of substation networks. The security of home area networks for automating electricity usage and smart meters are other areas of research.
