Our Program

The Masters of Engineering in Electrical Engineering with a concentration in Power Engineering is available for students that have a BS in Electrical Engineering or from another engineering discipline.

Requirements for the Masters of Engineering (ME) degree with a concentration in Electric Power are:

Total of 30 graduate credits At least 6 electrical engineering courses, 4 of which are in the power engineering area 21-27 credits of coursework 1-7 credits of ME project (option avail in Summer term)

The Power Engineering concentration allows students the maximum flexibility to design their program of study to meet their specific needs.

The Master of Engineering (ME) program in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering focuses on engineering practice and design. It can be completed within one calendar year and consists of up to 24 credits of graduate-approved coursework, (up to 18 in the major subject area and six in a minor area), and up to seven credits from a design project.

A design project is an integral part of the Master of Engineering program. It is intended to be an intensive team experience managed by the students and involving the examination and analysis of a real-world problem followed by the implementation of a design decision. Often, the problem will be drawn from the actual experiences of the design engineers who are available for interaction with the design team. The design team will be responsible for the preparation of written interim and final reports and, at the conclusion of the program, will make a formal non-graded presentation open to students, faculty and other interested parties....

The Masters of Engineering (ME) degree in Civil and Environmental Engineering with a concentration in Construction Engineering Management (CEM) is available for students that have a BS in Civil Engineering or from another engineering discipline.

The degree requirements are

The CEM track is designed for flexibility giving students the opportunity to choose courses that meet their needs and schedule. The CEM Program advisor is the Director of CEM (Erik Backus). The CEM project advisor will be selected through mutual agreement between the Director of CEM, the student, and project advisor. At the completion of the project work, the student will prepare a formal report and submit it to the project advisor. When the report is approved by the advisor, the project credits will be formally granted. Project credits can be taken in the summer.... [-]

The world of power electronics and energy conversion is changing rapidly, creating opportunities for electrical engineers with advanced skills and the ability to apply them to technologies and products that are driving growth. The objective of the electrical engineering programs is to expand your understanding of areas such as modern electric machinery, modeling, control of power electronics, superconductivity, synchronous generation, fuel cell engineering, photovoltaics and more. You’ll also learn how to put your knowledge to work so you can make an immediate and long-term impact in your field.
