Research that has an impact

Professor Xiaodai Dong's lab has built low-cost hardware that allows real-time monitoring of heart rate and electrocardiogram using a standard cell phone.

Our research

Pushing the edges of technology

If it runs on electricity or uses electromagnetism, electrical engineers are behind it—from devices that detect tumours to machines that record sound. Computers are at the heart of modern machines like cell phones, automobiles, drones, robots and more.

As engineers, we innovate and push the edges of what's possible—and make sure our designs are safe, reliable and practical at the same time.
