MSc in Electrical Engineering in Fairbanks United States | University of Alaska Fairbanks

The M.S. program provides three pathways: a thesis with oral defense for research-focused students, a project-based track, or coursework-only completion. UAF's engineering Ph.D. accepts students following an approved study plan. Qualified applicants with bachelor's degrees in physics, math, related sciences, or various engineering disciplines may enroll in graduate studies. Typically, well-prepared students can finish M.S. requirements in two years and a Ph.D. in three additional years. Electrical and computer engineering graduate programs align closely with faculty research, focusing on key areas like communications, remote sensing technologies (radar, lidar, sonar), instrumentation, microwave circuits, power systems, digital/computer engineering, nanotechnology, controls, and robotics. Active research explores high-latitude satellite communications, rocket telemetry, wireless technologies, wave propagation, biomedical/environmental instrumentation, signal processing, electronics, computer applications, renewable power systems, power grid analysis, quality enhancement, system modeling, automated controls, and robotic systems.
