Our robust research program touches a wide variety of disciplines including computer engineering and architecture, signal processing, communications, medical imaging, digital audio and music, photonics, and nanoscale electronics.Our Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) graduates thrive. Theyre making their mark at large and small companies, across a diverse range of sectors. These include Bose, Google, Apple, IBM, Siemen's, GM, Microsoft, Intel, Verizon, Amazon, and the US Government. The more academically inclined take up faculty or research positions in industry or beyond.
Our mission is to empower our students to be leaders, pursue their academic and professional passions, and model partnerships with educational, civic, cultural, health, and business communities. We will teach our graduates how to create innovative connections with various sectors. We will also teach them to value ethics, and diverse perspectives. Our graduates will serve their communities by developing programs which will improve the world around them. We will foster supportive training environments such that our graduate students can learn, discover, heal, and create.
This program requires a strong background in mathematics. The majority of our master's students have an undergraduate degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, computer science, or physics, which are all well suited to starting an electrical engineering MS program.
Robotics is a field of engineering that covers many different topics from mechanism design and embedded systems to artificial intelligence and machine learning. Roboticists draw their talents from and from many fields including electrical engineering, computer engineering, computer science, mechanical engineering and other adjacent fields and often work closely with engineers and researchers from these disciplines. The development and deployment of intelligent robots have the promise to transform how we transport materials and people, grow food and manufacture goods, diagnose and treat illnesses, and explore this and other planets.
