In the 60s, the Electrical Engineering Department offered EC (Electrical Communications) and EP (Electrical Power) courses.
During our RIT days, the EP students outnumber the EC students by roughly 3 to 1. A rationale was that EP students can get jobs much more easily than EC students.
Ma Tin Tin (Anne, EC69) was the sole female EE student from the Class of 69.
The Class of EE 67 had Daw Yee Yee Aung, Daw Nancy and Daw Maywaddy Tun Tun.
Daw Mya Mya Than (EP68) joined the faculty.
In the following decades, the EC (now known as EcE or Electronics) students “overtook” the EP students.
EE formally evolved into two Departments.
There were more female EE students, and several joined the faculty. A few rose to become Associate Professors and Professors.
