Master of Science [M.S] Electrical Engineering
An interdisciplinary approach marks many of the research projects that faculty share with graduate students.
The College of Engineering offers programs leading to the Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees in the following fields:
- chemical engineering
- civil engineering
- computer science
- electrical engineering
- engineering mechanics
- environmental engineering
- materials science and engineering
- mechanical engineering
Programs leading to the Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy degrees in biosystems engineering are offered through the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources.
All programs are designed to provide a fundamental approach to basic engineering principles with emphasis on scientific methods, and to lead to careers in engineering research and development or teaching. Advanced work in the major field of specialization is combined with supporting courses in one or more other fields to develop individuals capable of creative work in engineering science and areas of application.
Students who are enrolled in Master of Science degree programs in the Department of Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering may elect a Specialization in Food Safety. For additional information, refer to the statement on the specialization in the College of Veterinary Medicine section of this catalog.
