B.S. Computer Engineering / M.S. Electrical and Computer Engineering

Overview

This is a structured and integrated program of 154 credit hours. Students may pursue this program from either of the undergraduate options available for Computer Engineering Majors. It includes two required courses, ECE 715 and ECE 716 as well as the selection of advanced technical electives. 

• At least 30 credit hours must be at the graduate (600 or 700) level. Of these, at least 12 credit hours must be in courses open to graduate students only (700 level).
• Interested Computer Engineering juniors with cumulative GPA above 3.0 may declare their intent to participate by submitting an official application to the Departmental Graduate Committee for admission into the M.S.E.C.E. portion of the program.
• A student wishing to drop out of the five-year program without the M.S.E.C.E. degree could receive the B.S.Cp.E. degree after completing all its requirements, including the senior design project.
• All students must take the Graduate Record Examination (G.R.E.) before beginning their fifth-year courses.
• To qualify for the M.S.E.C.E. degree, students must meet all the pertinent Graduate School requirements, including an acceptable GRE score and a minimum of 3.0 GPA in the 30 credit hours applied towards the M.S.E.C.E. degree.
• The student is awarded both the B.S.Cp.E. and the M.S.E.C.E. degrees after the requirements for both degrees are satisfied.
