PhD in Engineering - Electrical Engineering (Bioengineering with EE) in Albuquerque United States | University of New Mexico

The School of Engineering provides doctoral programs culminating in a Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree across various engineering disciplines, including Architectural, Biomedical, Chemical, Civil, Computer, Electrical, Mechanical, and Nuclear Engineering, as well as Computer Science and Optical Science and Engineering (a collaborative program between Physics and Electrical & Computer Engineering departments). Ph.D. candidates must adhere to the Graduate Program guidelines outlined in this Catalog. Departmental graduate advisors can provide detailed policies for engineering graduate studies. Applicants should hold a bachelor's or master's degree (or equivalent) in engineering, physical sciences, or mathematics, with specific prerequisites varying by department (consult departmental listings and advisors). Additionally, candidates must demonstrate foundational knowledge and aptitude in their chosen field. The Ph.D. requires a minimum of 24 credit hours post-master's or 48 credit hours post-bachelor's (excluding dissertation/thesis credits), though most students exceed these baseline requirements. Each student's curriculum is tailored by their academic committee.
