application.Information about graduate fellowships can be found
here.
The department currently offers advanced
study in four broad areas:
Computer Engineering,
Electromagnetics,
Microelectronics, and
Signals and Systems. The Department offers
two degrees at the graduate level: the Master of Science (MS) in
Electrical and Computer Engineering and the Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) in Electrical and
Computer Engineering. The educational objectives and learning
outcomes for these degrees can be found
here.
Computer Engineering concentrates on the architecture and implementation of digital logic and computing systems.
Electromagnetics explores the theory, physical properties, and applications of electromagnetic radiation and includes emphases in optics, remote sensing, and numerical computation.
Microelectronics focuses on the design and fabrication of microelectronic circuits for digital and analog applications, including device physics, modeling, processing, and fabrication.
Signals and Systems studies fundamental and applied issues in information processing and includes emphases in communication theory, linear and nonlinear control systems, digital signal processing, and estimation theory.
