Online Bachelor’s Degrees
American Military University’s Bachelor’s Degrees
American Military University (AMU) is ranked as one of the best and most affordable schools for earning a bachelor’s degree in engineering. Accredited by the Higher Learning Commission, AMU enrolls both military and nonmilitary students. AMU’s School of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math offers a Bachelor of Engineering in Electrical Engineering. Students pursuing this 128-credit degree online can start any time, with new eight-week course sessions beginning every month. Students will experience a combination of hand-on labs and online instruction as they complete courses such as:
Electromagnetic Field Theory
Differential Equations
Discrete Mathematics
Analog Circuit Theory
Classes run as low as $250 a credit with AMU’s military grant, and the university also offers a no-cost textbook program for all undergraduate students. This bachelor’s degree also requires students to choose from the following concentrations:
Communications
General
Mechatronics Systems
Students who earn their bachelor’s in electrical engineering at AMU can pursue career paths as scientific researchers, aerospace engineers, electrical engineers, and CAD technicians.
An institution’s program specfic score is calculated with seven data points: (1) its student-to-faculty ratio, (2) its the graduation rate, (3) its retention rate, (4) its percentage of online students, (5) its concentrated Influence (a measure of the academic importance of a school), (6) its desirability (a measure of how many students chose to go to an institution), and (7) its exclusivity (a measure of how selective the insitutionis).
For each data point, we score schools based on where they fall compared to the other institutions on our site. Because our scores are based only on institutions with engineering programs and not tied to institutions without these programs, they accurately reflect an institutions’s value to the engineering student. Institutions with missing data receive a zero for that data point.
We weigh each data point and calculate an institution’s raw score. Then we create an adjusted raw score by combining a schools's score with a base score of 50. Finally, we score and rank institutions based on their adjusted score’s comparison to the top scoring institution.

Focused on online engineering colleges, our relative cost score compares the average in-state tuitions of institutions with online engineering programs.
Schools that offer a tuition guarantee promise students a fixed tuition rate for a portion of, or the entirety of, their education. This may or may not include fees and other costs.
Schools that offer a tuition pre-payment plan allow students to pay for future credits, semesters, or years of tuition at present-day prices and then use these credits, semesters, or years at a later date.
Schools that offer a tuition payment plan offer students the option to pay for their education in installments instead of a lump sum.
