Master’s Degree–Computer Engineering Major

Entrance Requirements

An undergraduate degree in an ABET-accredited computer engineering program is an ideal preparation for the program, though students with degrees in either computer science or electrical engineering should be able to enter the program with very few deficiencies (typically no more than three courses) and are encouraged to apply.

Requirements

All students are required to take four core courses: CS 555, 665; ECE 544 and 642. Students must also take four electives from an approved list of computer science, electrical and computer engineering and mathematics courses with at least one selection from computer science and one selection from electrical and computer engineering. Each student must pass a written and/or oral comprehensive examination and a writing proficiency examination.

Master of Science

A minimum of 31 credits is required, including 24 credits of approved course work, six credits of research work, and one credit of colloquium. The candidate is required to prepare a thesis.

Master of Engineering

A minimum of 31 credits is required, including 30 credits of approved course work and one credit of colloquium.
