Ringkasan program

The objective of this program in electrical engineering is to prepare individuals to perform original, leading edge research in the broad areas of communications and signal processing; digital systems; microelectronics and nanoelectronics, optics, optoelectronics; lightwave devices and systems; and wireless communications. Because of our strong collaborative programs with Dallas-area microelectronics and telecommunications companies, special emphasis is placed on preparation for research and development positions in these high technology industries. The Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering is awarded primarily to acknowledge the student’s success in an original research project, the description of which is a significant contribution to the literature of the discipline. The program will require a minimum of 75 semester credit hours beyond the baccalaureate degree. These credits must include at least 30 semester hours of graduate level courses beyond the baccalaureate level in the major concentration. All PhD students must demonstrate competence in the Master's level core courses in their research area. All students must have an academic advisor and an approved plan of study. Also a research oriented oral qualifying examination (QE) demonstrating competence in the Ph.D. candidate’s research area to be taken. A comprehensive examination consisting of: a written dissertation proposal, a public seminar, and a private oral examination conducted by the Ph.D. candidate’s supervising committee and completion of a major research project culminating in a dissertation demonstrating an original contribution to scientific knowledge and engineering practice is also required. The dissertation will be defended publicly. The rules for this defense are specified by the Office of the Dean of Graduate Studies. Neither a foreign language nor a minor is required for the Ph.D. However, the student’s supervisory committee may impose these or other requirements that it feels are necessary and appropriate to the student’s degree program. The principal concentration areas for the M.S.E.E. program are: Communications and Signal Processing; Digital Systems; Circuits and Systems; Optical Devices, Materials, and Systems; and Solid-State Devices and Micro Systems Fabrication. Besides courses required for each concentration, a comprehensive set of electives is available in each area.

Persyaratan masuk bagi mahasiswa internasional
