Overview

The Electrical Engineering program of the University of Colorado at Boulder foster the development of essential skills in communication, collaboration, leadership, and networking, empowering you to apply your learning directly to advance your career and contribute meaningfully to your field.

Professional ME

The Professional Master of Engineering degree (ME) is geared toward professionals looking to work in industry after graduation. Courses are mainly taught by instructors with industry experience, by current faculty, or by partners at national labs like the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).

The Professional ME is very similar to the Professional MS, but it permits students to take more courses considered less technically challenging. A sufficiently technical course has technical prerequisites with engineering, math and science problem-solving as its primary content. A less technical course is instead often policy- or business-focused at the 5000-level.
