The Master of Science (MS) in Electrical Engineering program is designed to prepare students for technically demanding careers in industry as well as for post-master’s graduate studies in electrical engineering or related fields. More specifically:

  • It requires students to build depth in an electrical engineering specialization, selected from areas such as signal processing and communication, systems and control, electromagnetics and photonics, and materials, circuits, and devices.
  • It requires students to take at least 4 credits of an ECE course at the 700 level.
  • It affords students the opportunity to flexibly choose graduate electives to explore technical or professional interests within engineering.
  • It has a practicum requirement that is satisfied by doing a 4-credit thesis, a 4-credit project, or taking two project-intensive courses.
