Graduate and Research Programmes
Graduate Credit in Electrical Engineering
Graduate credit is measured in “units”. A unit is a course at the graduate level taken for one semester, and which requires, as a prerequisite, preparation at the Bachelor’s level. Two units are given to a graduate course which continues for two semesters. Senior undergraduate courses as approvel by the Electrical Engineering Department may be allowed as credit for graduate students at one-half unit per semester. For each student, no more than two units total credit can be given to undergraduate courses.
A thesis is not required, but if submitted and accepted, will count either four or five units credit under EE 699. Thesis topics are worked out in discussions between students and faculty. No more than two units will be credited to a student taking EE 698. Furthermore, it is not possible to obtain credit under both EE 698 and EE 699.
Students transferring from other universities of recognized standing may be allowed a maximum of two units for graduate courses previously taken. No credit is given for any undergraduate course taken at other universities.
A full-time student is permitted to take a maximum load of five units for a semester. For part-time student, the maximum load is reduced from five units per semester by one unit for each seven hours per week of employment or outside work.
The Master’s Degree Programme
The Master’s degree programme in Electrical Engineering is designed to be flexible, and to accommodate regular full-time and part-time students, and cooperative graduate students from industry.
A complete programme consists of a total of ten units. Each student’s programme must be approved by the Electrical Engineering Department, and is worked out with a professor who acts as an advisor.
The student’s course work is considered unsatisfactory, and he is required to discontinue, if more than one course in Electrical Engineering receives grade below 66%, or more than two courses in other fields than Electrical Engineering receives grade below 66%.
Department of Electrical Engineering
A thesis student must be registered in EE 699 continuously without interruption, and the thesis must be done under the direct supervision of a professor of the Electrical Engineering Department, and is finally approved and accepted by that professor.
All course work and thesis for Master’s degree must be completed within four consecutive academic years. It is possible for a full-time student of exceptional ability to complete the requirements for the Master’s degree in two semesters, or one academic year.
The Ph.D. Programme
The major objective of the Ph.D. programme is to emphasize the importance of performing original research of high calibre. The requirements of the comprehensive examination, the supervising committee, course work, and the language examination, are all considered as aids to performing satisfactory research. Facilities for Ph.D. programmes are available in most fields of study described under Research.
