Qualification Requirements
The application for M.S. and Ph.D. programs in ECE can be accessed via the Graduate School's website. Only completed applications (with transcripts, resume, personal statement and recommendation letters) will be reviewed for admission by the ECE department.
GRE is waived for Fall 2024 admission
We have a large and extremely well-qualified applicant pool. Emphasis for admission is put on GPA, the personal statement (specified area of research interest), letters of recommendation, and previous degree curriculum. GPA's of our admitted applicants are generally above 3.25/4.0. Our faculty are looking for applicants with the highest potential for academic and research success.
Current M.S. ECE students are expected to reapply for the Ph.D. degree, but current students do not need to submit credentials or pay the application fee. However, if there is a break in attendance between degree levels, payment of the application fee will be required. M.S. ECE students should submit current reference letters and a current statement of purpose. They may wish to submit any other credentials they want bring up to date.
