Course Overview

In the electrical engineering masters, students can customize a specialty of their choosing while working closely with electrical engineering faculty in a contemporary, applied research area. The MS degree in electrical engineering allows students to customize their course work while working closely with electrical engineering faculty in a contemporary, applied research area. The program gives you the skills to solve business and industry challenges and deploy high-level solutions to problems affecting the world of engineering technology today. Students may choose among the following eight options: communications, controls, digital systems, electromagnetics, integrated electronics, MEMs, robotics, or signal and image processing.

The MS degree is awarded upon the successful completion of a minimum of 30 credit hours. Students have the option of completing a thesis or graduate paper. For those who choose the graduate paper, an additional course is required. Students may also choose a course-only option with a comprehensive exam (0 credits). 

Learning Objectives

The MS in electrical engineering prepares graduate students to:

  • Have specialized training in a concentrated field of study and develop professional attributes that include communication skills, and ethics to deal with the impact of technology in a global and societal context.
  • Encourage independent thinking and creativity that prepares students to pursue doctoral degrees in electrical engineering or related disciplines.

Learning Outcomes

  • Independent Thinker: Demonstrate an ability to work independently and/or in a team setting and possess the skills to continue to do so, on a global level.
  • Career Focus: Demonstrate proficiency in a concentrated course of study and research in a specialty area or subfield of electrical engineering,
  • Communication: Demonstrate the ability to effectively communicate both in written and oral form.

Entry Requirement 

Admission Requirements:

  • Hold a baccalaureate degree (or equivalent) from an accredited university or college in engineering or a related field.
  • Submit official transcripts (in English) from all previously completed undergraduate and graduate course work,
  • Have a minimum cumulative GPA of 3.0 (or equivalent). 
  • Submit scores from the GRE.
  • Submit two letters of recommendation from individuals well qualified to judge the candidate’s ability for graduate study, and
  • International applicants whose native language is not English must submit scores from the TOEFL, IELTS, or PTE. A minimum TOEFL score of 79 (internet-based) is required. A minimum IELTS score of 6.5 is required. The English language test score requirement is waived for native speakers of English or for those submitting transcripts from degrees earned at American institutions.
  • Candidates with a bachelor of science degree in fields outside of electrical engineering may be considered for admission, however, they may be required to complete bridge courses to ensure they are adequately prepared for graduate studies in electrical engineering.

Academic Requirements:

  • TOEFL: 79
  • IELTS: 6.5    
  • PTE Academic: 58

English Language Requirements:

An official score report for the TOEFL, IELTS, or PTE Academic exam is required of all international applicants whose native language is not English. Please view the overall minimum score requirement for your intended program in the table below. In addition, each program requires balanced sub-scores when determining an applicant’s need for additional English language courses.
