Qualification Requirements
Students are expected to have a Master's degree in engineering or a related discipline awarded by a recognized institution. Applicants with a different background are encouraged to apply. The admission committee will evaluate the application holistically to determine applicant suitability using several factors such as academic performance, GPA, GRE scores, background and experience. The admission committee may assign remedial courses on a case-by-case basis.
Submit official transcripts from previous institutions attended. The desirable minimum GPA is 3.3 (of a 4.0 maximum) in the last 60 credits attempted in the relevant field.
Submit the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) scores. The GRE requirement is waived for students with a Master's degree from EECS.
The applicant must produce two reference letters (at least two from academia) that address his/her research potential, motivation, relative academic achievement, and personality. Forms are supplied with applications for admission.
International students from non-English-speaking countries must be proficient in written and spoken English as evidenced by a score of at least 500 (paper-based test) or 213 (computer-based test) or 79 (Internet-based test) on the TOEFL or a score of at least 6.0 on the IELTS.
Applicants are expected to have taken the prerequisite courses listed below (or equivalents) before pursuing the Ph.D. degree. In some cases, prerequisite requirements may be satisfied after admission to the Ph.D. program. In such a case, proficiency in the prerequisite courses must be shown before the student takes dissertation credits.
