Application information

Entry requirements

Please see the Graduate School catalog page for information on the Application for Graduation. Unconditionally admitted full-time graduate students may seek and receive financial assistance in the form of a graduate assistantship. Assistantships generally include a monthly stipend as well as all or a part of tuition and health insurance. Graduate assistantships are highly competitive and being admitted into the graduate program does not in any way guarantee an assistantship award. Graduate Research Assistantships (GRAs) are awarded by individual professors with funded research. Applicants should communicate directly with a faculty member in the applicant’s area of interest concerning the availability of GRA positions and a potential match. The ECE Department offers Graduate Teaching Assistantships (GTAs) for students assisting faculty members with undergraduate courses and laboratories. GTA awards are determined by the ECE Department Administration at the request of individual faculty

Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.

Entry terms: Fall, Spring and Summer (the admissions page lists Spring, and Summer/Fall priority deadlines).

Graduate application fee is $65 for U.S. citizens and permanent residents and $80 for international students (nonrefundable). Deadlines are set per programme in the Academic Programs Portal; some programmes require a standardized test such as GRE or GMAT.
