Undergraduate students interested in graduate study in Telecom, Electrical and Electromagnetic Engineering can get a head start in earning a graduate degree through the GradSHARK Launch PAAD for Electrical Engineering.

Requirements to qualify:

  • Major in BSEE or BSCpE
  • 3.25 minimum GPA
  • 92 completed credit hours as an undergraduate

 

Number of credit hours a student can earn towards the graduate degree while completing their undergraduate studies:

15 credit hours (allowing two 500-level graduate courses to double as both undergraduate and graduate credit)

Courses* undergraduate students in the Launch PAAD can take to earn credit towards the graduate degree:

  • EI E 523 Microwave Engineering—elective for UG majors
  • EI E 525 Introduction to Antennas—elective for UG majors
  • EI E 534 Wireless Mobile Communications—elective for UG majors
  • EI E 535 Digital Communications—elective for UG majors
  • EI E 586 Digital Signal Processing—elective for UG majors
  • ENGR 525 Numerical Methods in Electromagnetics
  • MATH 575 Mathematical Statistics I
  • MATH 576 Mathematical Statistics II
  • CSCI 561 Computer Networks
  • PHYS 501 Intermediate Electromagnetic Theory I
  • PHYS 502 Intermediate Electromagnetic Theory II

*Students who fail to reserve 500-level courses for graduate credit at the time they take the course will not receive graduate credit for the course (graduate level work must be completed to earn graduate credit). Reserving graduate credit with 500-level courses is required to ensure the Graduate School and instructor know the student must complete graduate credit requirements for the course. Students cannot later claim graduate credit for 500-level courses if they did not take the appropriate steps to notify the Graduate School prior to taking the course.

To Enroll:

Students must be accepted into the Launch PAAD and complete the requisite GradSHARK Launch PAAD Course Enrollment Form for this degree. The form must be received by the Graduate School (the form requires approval from your Undergraduate Advisor and the Graduate Program Coordinator for Civil Engineering). During each subsequent term, the student must submit a new enrollment form for this program if they wish to take courses that can count towards a graduate degree (students will not officially be registered for graduate courses until this form is complete).
