PMP Curriculum
The Professional Master's Program in Electrical Engineering requires a total of 45 credits to be earned over the course of nine academic quarters (3 calendar years). Students generally take a four-credit course plus a one-credit seminar each quarter, for a total of 5 credits during any given quarter. Courses in the PMP are scheduled in the evening, and designed so that students generally need come to campus only once per week.
The following is an outline of the PMP Curriculum requirements:
- 36-40 coursework credits (courses are generally 3-4 credits each)
- EE 505 (4 credits) is required of ALL new students during their first quarter in the program
- 5-9 colloquium seminar credits (1 or 2 credits each) offered as part of a quarterly seminar series, EE 400/500
TOTAL: 45 credits
