* NOTE: These are the major codes for the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees. The major code for the Master of Engineering degree is EC84.
The Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) program is intended primarily for engineers who desire Master's level work but do not intend to continue with Ph.D. level research. It differs from the M.S. program as it is a terminal degree, whereas the M.S. may serve as an entry to a Ph.D. program. Salient features of the M.Eng. program include the following: it can be completed in one year at full-time or two years at half-time; it does not require a thesis, a research project or a comprehensive exam; it has flexible course requirements; and it has an option of three courses in business, management, and finance.
Course Requirements
Core courses (twenty-eight units): Students must take 5 closely related courses from one of the focus groups listed below, and 2 courses that are distinctly different from one of the other focus groups:
|
|
- Focus Group 1 (Applied Physics):
- Focus Group 2 (Communications & Signal Analysis):
- Focus Group 3 (Electronic Circuits & Systems):
|
Technical Electives (eight units): To fulfill the Technical Elective requirement, students may take graduate level courses in ECE, CSE, Mathematics or Physics; 4 units may be either ECE 298 or ECE 299.
Professional Electives (twelve units): To fulfill the Professional Elective requirement, students may take any upper division undergraduate courses in preparation for further graduate level work, or any graduate courses to provide additional breadth or depth in one or more areas.
Some possible choices for Professional Electives include the following courses from the Graduate School of International Relations and Pacific Studies (IR/PS): IRCO 401 (Managerial Economics), IRCO 420 (Accounting), and IRCO 421 (Finance).
All elective course choices must be approved by a faculty advisor.
