Master's Degree Course Requirements
For the M.S. degree, a minimum total of 45 quarter credit hours is required: 30 credit hours of graduate course work and 15 credits for thesis research 20-ECES-889. A minimum of 21 course credits must be completed from the course categories marked Primary for the student's degree program. Courses from Optional categories may be done without written consent of the advisor.
The entries in the table's cells are to be interpreted as follows:
- "Primary" in a cell means that the courses in this course group (row) are primary to the degree program (column) and students pursuing this degree program must complete some minimum number of credits from their primary course groups.
- "Optional" in a cell means that the courses in this course group (row) can be taken for this degree program and will be counted towards the degree requirements.
- If a cell says "Minimum 1 course" then that degree program requires that a student complete at least one course from this course group.
