GRADUATE OVERVIEW
Rooted within the Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science, one of Texas’s top public engineering schools, the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering has robust graduate offerings.
The department is also home to a dynamic internship program connecting graduate students to experiences in their fields of study. Availability of advanced research labs, state-of-the-art equipment and facilities and cutting-edge, in-class projects set up our graduate students for success as professional, ethical leaders.
ELECTRICAL ENGINEERING
The Electrical and Computer Engineering graduate degree programs prepare students for leadership roles in research, development and design positions.
These positions require the use of skillful and imaginative solutions to engineering problems in five major concentration areas: Circuits, computing systems, devices, power electronics and energy systems and signals and systems.
Because of our strong collaborative programs with Dallas-area high-technology companies, students get an education tailored for professional practice in electrical engineering. Courses offered are taught by many teaching faculty who are also engaged in research; many have professional experience in industry.
The mission of the Electrical Engineering Program is to provide excellent education in modern electrical engineering practice. Our graduates are highly qualified for rewarding and successful careers in a diverse range of modern electrical engineering fields.
Computer ENGINEERING
The Computer Engineering Program concerns the design, construction, implementation and maintenance of software and hardware components of modern computing systems and computer-controlled equipment. A combination of computer science and electrical engineering, computer engineering prepares students for careers that deal with computer systems from design through implementation.
The mission of the Computer Engineering Program is to provide excellent education in modern computer engineering practice. Our graduates are highly qualified for rewarding and successful careers in a diverse range of modern computer engineering fields.
TELECOMMUNICATION ENGINEERING
The Telecommunications Engineering Program prepares graduate students for professional practice in the design, programming, theory, and applications of telecommunications networks. Courses are offered that lead to the MS and a PhD degree in Telecommunications Engineering. The TE program prepares both academically oriented students as well as those focused on their professional career and roles within industry and/or government occupations.
