Electrical and Systems Engineering
The master’s degrees offered by the Department of Electrical and Systems Engineering are structured to build upon a student’s undergraduate knowledge and prepare them for either engineering practice or research. The MSE degree requires the successful completion of 10 course units. Electrical engineers complete at least six courses in electrical engineering and take up to four electives. Systems engineers take five core courses and are required to choose a focus for the remaining five courses. Students with special interests not treated by the formal curriculum may pursue faculty-supervised independent study for up to one course unit.
Students in these programs can take advantage of not only these instructional opportunities, but also state-of-the-art research facilities, including the General Robotics, Automation, Sensing and Perception (GRASP) Laboratory; The Distributed Systems Laboratory; The Singh Center for Nanotechnology; and The Multimedia And Networking Laboratory.
