CASE offers Postgraduate Program in Electrical Engineering with strong foundations in theory, to equip student with the skills necessary to grasp and develop new technologies and trends in the electrical engineering field. Master of Science in Electrical Engineering program at CASE is tailored to the specific needs of modern industry and R&D organizations. Our faculty is also actively engaged in the research that includes all major areas of Electrical Engineering.

Currently, the following areas of specializations are being offered in Electrical Engineering:

• Telecommunication and Signal Processing
• Electrical Energy and Control Systems

Each student of electrical engineering has to select one Area of Specialization (AOS) out of the two available options. The courses of the remaining AOS of the ECE Department (including non selected AOS of electrical engineering, computer engineering, information security, and software engineering) will then become areas for Additional Graduate Hours (AGH). Student opting for any AOS also has a recommended list of AGH courses specified. However, students can also choose other course too accordingly to their interest in consultation with the academic advisors. A student has to select one Minor area and complete the entire Minor course work requirement from that area.

A student planning for a PhD is required to take Mathematics as a minor.

Below are some of the courses regularly offered in the two Areas of Specialization:
