MS in Electrical Engineering

The Master of Science in Electrical Engineering (MSEE) is designed to meet working professionals' needs in the greater Washington DC metropolitan area and full-time graduate students. The MSEE offers a high-level graduate program with strong foundations in theory to:

a) equip students with interdisciplinary skills required to grasp and develop new technologies and trends in the electrical engineering field; and

b) prepare electrical engineers with the knowledge and tools needed to advance into leadership roles and shape this dynamic field's future.

The MSEE has the following two areas of emphasis:

• Communications and Signal Processing
• Digital Systems Engineering

The MSEE requires 30-credit-hours of graduate-level course work. The program offers both thesis and non-thesis options. However, students who are supported as research assistants are required to pursue the thesis option.
