Master of Science in Electrical Engineering

Student Experience

You’ll build in-demand skills that have real-world relevance. With faculty who bring extensive industry experience to the courses they teach, you’ll have the same quality and rigor as the on-campus students.

You will share courses with students that come from diverse backgrounds. Most will have industry experience of their own and some will have recently earned an undergraduate degree. Your peers will have academic and professional experience in electrical engineering, physics, and electrical and computer engineering. You’ll also encounter learners from other STEM fields and those with credentials in mechanical engineering and computer science.  In general, you will be surrounded by others who are highly analytical, self-motivated, and adept with technical and quantitative subject matter.

This program is a good fit if you are:

• A recent BS graduate, have a high interest in engineering, a working engineer, or an engineering manager wanting to upgrade your technical skills and advance your career.

• In need of flexible and convenient learning opportunities that fit into your busy professional and personal life.

• Interested in developing practical skills that you can apply immediately in your current job.

• Looking for course content and materials designed for any environment that make significant use of advanced engineering techniques.
