The Department of Electrical Engineering offers graduate studies leading to the M.S. in electrical engineering. The program is designed to stimulate creativity, to provide an in-depth understanding of the basic physical phenomena involved in electrical systems, and to provide the student with the ability to use modern techniques in the analysis and design of electrical components and systems. Bulletins describing graduate studies in electrical engineering are available from the departmental office.
Upon completion of their studies, graduates of the M.S. program will be able to:
1. Demonstrate the ability to formulate, analyze and solve advanced electrical engineering problems.
2. Demonstrate the ability to apply advanced design processes to engineering.
3. Demonstrate the ability to conduct research and development to investigate or create new systems, components, or processes.
4. Demonstrate the ability to communicate effectively.
Admission to the graduate program in electrical engineering requires a baccalaureate degree in electrical engineering or a related area such as physics, mathematical sciences, chemistry, computer science, or other science and engineering disciplines. Undergraduate students in electrical engineering can, however, enroll in the integrated B.S./M.S. sequence after finishing 90 semester hours with a GPA of at least 3.00.
Check departmental information for any additional requirements.
