    General Resources

    This page focuses on resources which have specific usefulness to the Electrical and Computer Engineering community. However, many general, interdisciplinary engineering resources are useful for all engineers, regardless of their specialty. For general engineering resources, please see our Fundamentals of Engineering Research guide.
    Human-Computer Interaction Research Guide
    A collection of resources chosen to address the unique interdisciplinary nature of HCI.
