MS (Electrical Engineering)
This program prepares a graduate in Electrical Engineering to acquire expertise in a particular area. In the final year, the student normally undertakes a thesis. This may be undertaken in collaboration with the industry, under the guidance of industry experts and a faculty supervisor from the University.
A student has the option to pursue MS by undertaking either a 6 credit hour MS Thesis or MS Project, spread over two regular semesters.
Typical course load in a semester is four courses. However, NUCES staff cannot register for more than two courses in a semester.
Award of DegreeFor the award of MS degree, a student must have:
- Passed courses totalling at least 30 credit hours, including THREE Core courses
- Obtained a CGPA of at least 2.5
