The University awards the Doctor of Philosophy, its most advanced degree, to acknowledge exceptional academic expertise across a wide discipline along with outstanding research or innovative contributions in a specific focus area (typically explored through the doctoral thesis). The College of Engineering and Applied Science (CEAS) structures its PhD program to uphold rigorous academic expectations. Oversight for the Engineering PhD falls under the CEAS Graduate Program Subcommittee (GPSC), with certain responsibilities handled by the CEAS Graduate Office and individual departments within the College.

Qualification Requirements

A bachelor's or master's degree:
Applicants holding a BS or MS degree in engineering or computer science, depending on the major area selected will generally be admitted without deficiencies.
Applicants holding BS or MS degrees from domains outside of engineering or computer science may be admitted with specific program-defined course deficiencies, provided that the deficiencies amount to no more than two courses. The student is expected to satisfy deficiency requirements within three enrolled semesters. The deficiencies are monitored by the Graduate School and the individual graduate program unit. No course credits earned in making up deficiencies may be counted as program credits required for the degree. For the Engineering major areas, the BS or MS preparation generally must include mathematics equivalent to ELECENG 234 or MATH 234. For the Computer Science major area, the mathematics preparation must generally include mathematics equivalent to MATH 232. Otherwise, the made-up deficiencies must be sufficient to assure the Graduate Program Subcommittee that the applicant is able to proceed with advanced work directed toward the doctoral degree.
A minimum grade point average of 3.0 on the basis of 4.0, in the highest degree granted. An applicant with a master's degree in engineering or computer science having a GPA of less than 3.0, but at least equal to 2.75, may be admitted if substantial evidence can be submitted demonstrating that the applicant has the capacity to perform satisfactory doctoral work.
All applicants are required to submit a brief (1 or 2 page) statement describing their professional goals and at least two letters of reference.
The Graduate Record Examination (GRE) is required for all international and domestic applicants.
