In the electrical engineering masters, students can customize a specialty of their choosing while working closely with electrical engineering faculty in a contemporary, applied research area. The MS degree in electrical engineering allows students to customize their course work while working closely with electrical engineering faculty in a contemporary, applied research area. The program gives you the skills to solve business and industry challenges, and deploy high-level solutions to problems affecting the world of engineering technology today. Students may choose among the following six options: communication, control and robotics, digital systems, integrated electronics, MEMs, or signal and image processing.

The MS degree is awarded upon the successful completion of a minimum of 30 credit hours. Students have the option of completing a thesis or graduate paper. For those who choose the graduate paper, an additional course is required. Students may also choose a course-only option with a comprehensive exam (0 credits). All students are expected to attend Graduate Seminar (EEEE-795) every semester they are on campus.

The MS in electrical engineering prepares graduate students to:

• Have specialized training in a concentrated field of study and develop professional attributes that include communication skills, and ethics to deal with the impact of technology in a global and societal context.
• Encourage independent thinking and creativity that prepares students to pursue doctoral degrees in electrical engineering or related disciplines.

The program's student learning outcomes are:

• Independent Thinker: Demonstrate an ability to work independently and/or in a team setting and possess the skills to continue to do so, on a global level.
• Career Focus: Demonstrate a proficiency in a concentrated course of study and research in a specialty area or subfield of electrical engineering,
• Communication: Demonstrate the ability to effectively communicate both in written and oral form
