Course programme

The doctorate degree in electrical engineering is awarded in recognition of mastery in the field of electrical engineering and upon demonstration of an ability to make substantial creative contributions to knowledge in that field. The Ph.D. recipient will be capable of a continuing effort toward the advancement of knowledge and achievement in research and other scholarly activities.

This program is appropriate for those students with master's degrees who are interested in pursuing an academic or industrial research career. The Ph.D. program requires a minimum of 84 credit hours beyond the bachelor's degree, including the master's degree studies. A minimum of 24 credits are devoted to the student s research work, and the remaining credits are devoted to coursework in electrical and computer engineering and in such basic sciences as mathematics and physics. The selection of courses is considered and approved by the student s adviser and the department s graduate program director on the basis of relevance of course content, rather than along a predetermined sequence announced by the department. All students must complete the two doctoral seminar courses (ECE 695 and ECE 696), preferably early in their Ph.D. programs.

Work toward the Ph.D. generally takes a minimum of three years of study beyond the master s degree. Upon admission to graduate study leading to the Ph.D. degree, each student is assigned an academic adviser, who may eventually serve as the thesis adviser and guides the student s research. The department requires a qualifying examination within the first three semesters of full-time Ph.D. studies. This is an oral examination consisting of two sessions in a major area in electrical and computer engineering and one session in each of two minor areas. This examination is intended to explore both the depth and breadth of the student s academic abilities. At an early stage in the student's research program, and usually about a year after passing the qualifying examination, a comprehensive examination is held in the area of specialization.
