}}The Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering (EEE) at the University of Manchester was formed at the merger of the Victoria University of Manchester and UMIST in 2005, formed largely from the former UMIST department of the same name. The department has its origins in the Department of Physics and Electrical Engineering in the Manchester Municipal School of Technology.[http://www.eee.manchester.ac.uk/ EEE website]{{Cite web |url=http://www.eee.manchester.ac.uk/aboutus/history/ |title=History of department and school |access-date=14 June 2011 |archive-date=10 July 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110710040727/http://www.eee.manchester.ac.uk/aboutus/history/ |url-status=dead }} The department was originally known as the School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering following the formation of the University of Manchester, however it was renamed in 2019 following a faculty-wide restructuring.{{cite web|url=https://www.staffnet.manchester.ac.uk/fse/faculty-structure/faq/faq-structure/|title=FAQs - Structure|access-date=17 November 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191117105504/https://www.staffnet.manchester.ac.uk/fse/faculty-structure/faq/faq-structure/|archive-date=17 November 2019|url-status=live}}
