General requirements

Bachelor’s degree in Electrical & Computer Engineering from an institution accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology (EAC/ABET).
Undergraduate GPA of 3.0/4.0 or better. Applicants with undergraduate grade point average less than 3.0 on a 4.0 scale may receive conditional admission. Cumulative GPA of 3.0 on a 4.0 scale or better is required upon completion of 9 credits, for being allowed to continue in the program. Some students may be advised to complete prerequisite or additional courses which will not count toward their degree.
Post-baccalaureate admission. Students may enroll to meet individual needs for continuing education rather than for pursuing degree. Enrollment as a post-baccalaureate student does not imply later approval for degree seeking status.
