Go further in your career with a master's in electrical engineering. Graduate with the knowledge, skills and personal network you'll need to succeed.

The Master of Science in Electrical Engineering (MSEE) is a progressive academic master's degree designed mainly for both full-time and part-time students interested in proceeding to the departmental full-time doctoral program and/or professional practice in an industrial career. Our program provides students with the flexibility to specialize in different aspects of the field of electrical engineering while working closely with faculty members in the department.

The Department of Electrical & Systems Engineering looks for students who have a solid undergraduate background in electrical engineering and a desire to progress further into the field. Many students in the program pursue independent research as a part of their degree by working in a research lab with a faculty member. To support research efforts, the department provides master’s students with state-of-the-art research equipment and the considerable resources offered by a great university.

Students who earn their MSEE gain a competitive edge over their peers, working in fields such as system design and specification; university teaching and research; sales; cost analysis; management; component design, research, and development; and consulting, production, and quality control.
