Qualification Requirements
In addition to the established Graduate School admissions criteria, the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering seeks the following from applicants to the Master's program in Computer Engineering (MSCPE):
An earned undergraduate degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering or a closely related field of engineering or sciences
Applicants with baccalaureate degrees in fields other than Electrical and Computer Engineering (e.g. physics, mathematics, computer science, etc.) may be considered for admission, if satisfactory evidence on the aptitude to pursue graduate studies in Electrical and Computer Engineering is demonstrated. If additional preparatory courses are required, such courses should be taken before applying for the MSCPE.
A proven track record with a minimum undergraduate GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale
Additional academic credentials, such as other attempted post-baccalaureate studies undertaken, if applicable, may also be submitted
Satisfactory scores in the quantitative and verbal sections of the Graduate Record Examinations (GRE) general test
For international applicants from non-English speaking countries, a minimum Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) score of 220 (computer-based), 557 (paper-based), or 83 (internet-based) must be obtained. Other official English proficiency tests such as MELAB and IELTS may also be acceptable, as stated in the Graduate School's admissions section.
Admission is based on the overall background, motivation, and potential, as determined by the department
