DESCRIPTION
- Through QUEST, the Department of Electrical Engineering now
offers an opportunity for students to pursue a master抯 degree in
Electrical Engineering without an on-campus residency requirement.
To broaden the student抯 background, all are required to take courses
in at least two areas of electrical engineering and in mathematics.
All students also are required to complete a thesis.
SPECIAL ENROLLMENT ISSUES
- none
TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS
- Bachelors degree, 3.0 GPA on a 4.0 scale. The purpose of QUEST
is to make quality, up-to-date education available in a flexible,
convenient manner. Students choosing the program may enroll in a
variety of courses in engineering, computer science, education,
business, nursing, and human environmental sciences. Other
disciplines are added as studios are opened. QUEST brings you
undergraduate and graduate courses taught before a live on-campus
audience and recorded on videotape. The tapes are sent the next
working day to your place of employment or a conveniently located
open site. You complete the same course requirements and take the
same examinations as on-campus students. For a current QUEST course
listing see the web site.
