ECSE offers three Master's level options: Master of Engineering (MEng), Master of Science (MS) with a Master's thesis, and MS without a thesis. All three options can be pursued in Electrical Engineering (ELEC) or in Computer & Systems Engineering (CSYS). Students may pursue the Master’s degree on either a full- or part-time basis. The MEng and MS without thesis are usually terminal degrees for those who wish to enter professional practice upon completion. For master’s students considering the PhD, the MS degree program with the thesis is strongly preferred.
