ELECTRICAL AND COMPUTER ENGINEERING
Clemson University’s Holcombe Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering is now accepting applications for part-time and full-time students seeking the following degrees:
Master of Science (M.S.) in electrical engineering and computer engineering
Master of Engineering (M.Engr.) in electrical engineering
Doctorate (Ph.D.) in electrical engineering and computer engineering
Designed for Working
Professionals
These graduate programs are designed to meet the needs of working engineers. Classes are held online and in-person at the Zucker Family Graduate Education Center in North Charleston primarily during the late afternoons and evenings to accommodate working professionals. Students will not
be required to travel to Clemson’s main campus. Courses are offered each semester in a traditional face-to-face classroom format and in “real time” streaming to and from Clemson’s main campus. Faculty lecture from Clemson and from Charleston on a rotating basis to ensure students on both campuses have in-person contact. Recorded lectures will
be available and cloud archived for 24/7 retrieval, allowing students to make progress and view class lectures regardless of professional travel or personal obligations. Faculty hold scheduled office hours in order to be able to meet with students virtually and one-on-one in North Charleston.

Dr. Eric Johnson, PalmettoNet Endowed Chair in Optoelectronics, and Kaitlyn Morgan, graduate student in Electrical Engineering, work on an optical link for undersea optical communications, a project sponsored by the Office of Naval Research.
The Program
Subject areas covered will initially include: power systems engineering power electronics cyber security communications & networking electromagnetics Students can elect to engage in a research-oriented degree, a degree with a professional practice focus or a coursework-only option. All three degrees mirror the programs currently offered on Clemson’s main campus in requirements and expectations. The thesis-option M.S. program requires completion of eight lecture courses (three credit hours each) plus credit hours for research and a master’s thesis. The M.Engr. program also requires completion of eight lecture courses (three credit hours each) plus credit hours for a practice-focused engineering design project. For the non-thesis M.S. program, students must complete 11 three-credit courses. A part-time student taking one course a semester, including the summer semester, can earn the non-thesis option M.S. degree in fewer than four years.
Unique Research
Opportunities
Students enrolled in the programs will have the opportunity to conduct research in Clemson University’s SCE&G Energy Innovation Center, which houses some of the world’s most advanced energy systems testing and research facilities. Ongoing research and full-scale testing of next generation electric power technologies enables students to work on real-world solutions for the changing electric power industry, including: power systems energy storage solar power micro-grids wind turbine drivetrains cyber / cyber-physical security dynamic modeling and
simulation controls A wide range of additional research opportunities are also available at the Clemson University Restoration Institute. To learn more visit clemsonenergy.com.
Prerequisites
The master’s degree builds on a strong undergraduate background in electrical or computer engineering. Prospective students
must have a strong undergraduate background in electrical or computer engineering. Exemplary applicants with an undergraduate degree in other disciplines may also be eligible for the program. Students should review their academic background with a Clemson electrical and computer engineering advisor.
Application Process
The steps for submission of an application are found at the web link below by selecting the Student Resources section. Prospective students are highly encouraged to discuss the program requirements, curriculum, expectations and admissions process with the electrical and computer engineering graduate program coordinator.
