Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering - Communication Systems

Southern Illinois University Edwardsville

For the Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering, the School of Engineering offers courses primarily in the areas of: communication systems, computer systems, computer vision and image processing, power, control systems, IC design and signal processing. The electrical engineering discipline is concerned with the development and application of electrical and computer technology to enhance and enrich all aspects of modern life and society. The program features a solid foundation in mathematics and physics, leading to a core of engineering courses focused on electrical engineering, and finally several technical electives and capstone senior design. Computer engineering has impacted and shaped the last 50 years more than any other field, and we are still in the midst of the digital revolution and information age. Smart devices, equipped with sensors and communicating over networks, are working together using artificial intelligence and deep learning and are growing at an ever-increasing pace. There is unparalleled demand for computer engineers who understand digital hardware and software interaction and can interface computing technology to other engineering systems. At SIUE, computer engineering students study the fundamentals, but learn practical hands-on skills in well-equipped modern laboratories for computation, simulation, and measurement. This degree focuses on Communication systems concentration.
