The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering offers a Master of Science in Electrical Engineering and participates in the College of Engineering Doctor of Philosophy program. Several areas of specialization are available at the graduate level. Major areas are bioengineering, communications systems, computer systems, control systems, electromagnetics, power systems, instrumentation, signal processing, and solid-state electronics. At the master's level there are three options: thesis, report, course work only. All require a minimum of 30 hours of credit. The Ph.D. program requires 60 hours beyond the master's including original research of sufficient quality and importance to merit publication in a referred journal.
The department conducts research in many different areas of Electrical and Computer Engineering including networking, communications theory and hardware design, VLSI device and circuit development, power systems, embedded systems, and medical device design. Opportunities for Graduate Research Assistant appointments are available on a competitive basis to highly qualified students with good prior background in the specific technologies involved in externally funded grants. Opportunities for Graduate Teaching Assistant positions are also available to students with good interpersonal as well as technical skills needed in interacting with the undergraduate student body.
The department encourages using the standard design template provided in these files. There is a PowerPoint template and a LaTex template for 3' x 4' posters.
