Admissions Requirements

Admission to the Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering program as a regular graduate student requires the demonstration of high potential for success based on the following:

1. Submission of the Application for Graduate Admission;
2. A BS degree in electrical engineering or computer engineering (or equivalent) from an accredited (or equivalent) college or university (minimum GPA of 3.0);
3. Official transcripts of all completed college work;
4. Three letters of recommendation (employers and professors are preferred);
5. A professional resume.

Students with a GPA of less than a 3.0 may be admitted on a provisional basis. They will be evaluated for official graduate student status upon completion of (possibly some pre-core courses) and 12 semester hours of required electrical and computer engineering graduate course work at Lawrence Tech. This evaluation will be conducted by the program director and the Graduate Admissions Committee. Students are notified of their status within two weeks of completion of the minimum required hours.

Students with a Bachelor of Science degree in a field other than electrical or computer engineering who have a GPA of at least 3.0 may be admitted on a provisional basis. These students must satisfy all prerequisite requirements before they can be granted official graduate status. The program director and the Graduate Admissions Committee decide what the prerequisite requirements are on a case-by-case basis.
