Bachelor of Science/Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering

This fast-track program enables outstanding BS degree students in Electrical Engineering or Computer Engineering to complete both the BS and the MS degrees with nine fewer total credits. This is accomplished by students taking their two ELE or CPE technical electives at the ECE 500 level and using either ECE 471 (ELE) or ECE 457 (CPE) towards both the BS and MS degrees. Because of the nature of the fast paced BSMS Program, students must meet with faculty early in their senior year to find someone willing to supervise the MS thesis or project and define a clear graduate program of study reviewed and approved by the student's graduate advisor. The students should work with their undergraduate advisor to select the technical elective(s) that will count towards the BS and MS degrees. The students must be formally accepted into the BSMS program before certification for the BS degree; otherwise the graduate courses taken in the senior year will not be double counted.

Submit secondary and/or post-secondary sealed official transcripts translated into English by a certified professional. Transcripts with at least three years' grades must be uploaded by school counselors. Minimum GPA requirement: 2.5. SAT/ACT score, letter of recommendation from a teacher or school counselor: highly recommended for our most competitive programs, such as nursing, biology, engineering, and psychology, a personal essay (up to 650 words) that demonstrates qualities of leadership, community service, work experiences and/or other significant interests; this can be completed as part of your Common Application.
