What to Expect Electrical

“I believe that the graduate program at Western New England really helped me get a very strong handle on a lot of the foundational concepts…I’m a lot better and a lot more independent in the lab than some of my other colleagues and I attribute that all to the instruction here.”–Eric Droz ’18/G’21

What Will You Study?

To satisfy requirements for an advanced degree in electrical engineering, you will take four core courses in Engineering Management or Project Management, Design of Experiments, System Integration, and Advanced Electrical Engineering Analysis. At the completion of these 12 credits, you will then choose a faculty advisor and course of study for the remainder of your education. Your choices include an all-course option; a project option, which includes advanced coursework and a final presented project; and a thesis option, that involved advanced coursework and a thesis with presentation.
