The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering provides graduate programs culminating in a Master of Science (MS) in electrical engineering and a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in electrical engineering. The MS curriculum delivers advanced studies and hands-on experience in analytical problem-solving, balancing broad knowledge with focused expertise. Students undertake a master's thesis with an oral defense, allowing for concentrated exploration of contemporary electrical engineering subjects. The PhD program cultivates independent expertise across major electrical engineering domains, equipping graduates for careers in industry, academia, or research. Doctoral candidates must produce original research that meaningfully advances their specialized field. These programs align with faculty research specialties, offering concentrations in computer engineering, cybersecurity, electromagnetics, telecommunications, digital signal processing, control systems, power engineering, power electronics, sustainable energy solutions, energy storage technologies, energy conversion systems, robotics, and nano-scale electronic engineering.
