Program Overview

The Faculty of Engineering and Applied Science at Memorial University offers thesis-based graduate programs leading to master of engineering (MEng) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degrees in Electrical Engineering.

Program Details

For both electrical engineering programs, students have access to a wide variety of engineering software for tasks, such as electric circuit simulation (SPICE, PSPICE, electronics workbench). Special facilities include the Electrical Engineering Research Laboratories. At Memorial, you may pursue Electrical Engineering graduate studies in a wide variety of areas including:

• Electric power systems
• Control systems
• Communications systems

Degree Requirements

• The MEng program normally takes two years to complete and students are required to complete at least four courses, a seminar course and a thesis.
• The PhD program usually takes three to four years to complete and comprises two courses beyond the master's level, completion of comprehensive examinations and a significant research thesis.

Admission Requirements

To be considered for admission to a MEng program, the minimum requirements will normally be a second-class degree in an appropriate area of study from a university of recognized standing. To be considered for admission to a PhD program, the minimum requirements will normally be a Master's degree from a university of recognized standing, in an appropriate area of study.
