Introducing the integrated Master of Science in Electrical & Computer Engineering (MS in ECE) degree.
Electrical and computer engineers are in great demand. Nonetheless, competition for the top jobs is intense. To truly stand out and prepare yourself to excel, you may need a Master of Science degree.
DEPARTMENT OF ELECTRICAL & COMPUTER ENGINEERING 1
Students learn how connected vehicles can reduce traffic in a Smart City.
Flexible studies. You can customize your program to delve deeply into either computer or electrical engineering while gaining exposure to both. And you have the option to obtain your degree with engineering practice or with interdisciplinary MS specializations such as Data Science, Cybersecurity and Robotics. A wide range of technical electives offers further flexibility to create the program you want and shape how you present yourself to employers. The program can be completed in two or three semesters.
