Policy: Requirements for the Degree of Electrical Engineer
To qualify for the degree of Electrical Engineer, the
student must complete at least 90 credit hours of work,
beyond the BSEE degree, in Electrical Engineering and allied
fields. The courses in Electrical Engineering must be
selected from 500, 600, or 700 numbers. The classes in
allied fields must be classes not required for the BSEE
degree. All courses should be selected carefully, in
consultation with the student's supervisory committee, to
help achieve the student's professional goals. As a part of
the 90 credit hour requirement, the student may choose to do
a special project of up to 18 credit hours, or may apply
thesis credit of up to 15 credit hours previously applied to
obtain the MSEE degree. At least 45 credit hours, of the 90
credit hours required, must be obtained at the University of
Utah beyond the master's degree.
All course work must be approved, in advance, by the
student's supervisory committee. A special project, if
done, must be completed under the supervision of the
committee chairperson.
