Undergraduates in the ECE department who have maintained a good academic record in both departmental and overall course work are encouraged to participate in the five-year B.S./M.S. program. Participation in the program will permit students to complete the requirements for the M.S. degree within one year following receipt of the B.S. degree.
Admission to the Program
Students should submit an application for the B.S./M.S. program, including three letters of recommendation, by the program deadline during the spring quarter of their junior year. Applications are made available from the ECE Undergraduate Affairs office in Spring, and will be announced to all undergraduates. No GRE’s are required for application to the B.S./M.S. program. A GPA of at least 3.0 both overall and in the major and strong letters of recommendation are required to be considered for program admission. However since this program is highly competitive, higher GPA is typically necessary to secure admission.
Continuation in the Program
Once admitted to the B.S./M.S. program, students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative GPA in all courses through the winter quarter of the senior year and in addition must at all times maintain a 3.0 cumulative GPA in their graduate course work. Students not satisfying these requirements may be re-evaluated for continuation in the program.
Admission for graduate study through the B.S./M.S. program will be for the M.S. degree only. Undergraduate students wishing to continue toward the Ph.D. degree must apply and be evaluated according to the usual procedures and criteria for admission to the Ph.D. program.
Curriculum
Please refer to the general catalog for details on requirements for the Master of Science program. Consult with graduate advisors if you are unclear about this program.
Students in the five-year B.S./M.S. program must complete the same requirements as those in the regular M.S. program. Completion of the M.S. degree requirements within one year following receipt of the B.S. degree will generally require that students begin graduate course work in their senior year. Students must have received their B.S. degree before they will be eligible to enroll as graduate students in the department. |
