Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science
The Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science offers a software-focused, advanced industry driven, real world problem-solving experiential education. We challenge proprietary silo island development approach, by collaboration with all stakeholders and development of open standards. What sets GSAS apart from other schools is our industry-focused culture, our education programs that integrate fundamentals with real-world applications; and enthusiastic collaborations across disciplines to solve critical problems in advanced industries.
Our education models focus on deep and broad engineering fundamentals coupled with hands-on applications of those advanced knowledge through real-world projects, often in partnership with industry. We encourage students to develop their communications, leadership and problem-solving skills by working in team environments, to better prepare for the professional world.
Whether you're looking for a master's or doctorate degree programs in engineering, GSAS offers graduate degree programs that integrate online study, class lectures, and professional development. Students enrolled in the doctoral programs will receive supervision from both the academic faculty and industrial expert.
Strong links with industry partners is one of our key strengths; these relationships have a major influence on our engineering courses, keeping our academic staff and students at the forefront of engineering practice.
This contact with industry such as Tencent, Ping An, Huawei and Baidu ensures we equip our students with relevant skills which will lead them to a successful career. This relationship is also of benefit to our industry partners as we can provide services and training, sharing our own knowledge and skills to strengthen their business.
Mandatory internship offers students real life practical working experiences in their field of studies outside the academic setting. Through internships, students can broaden their horizons, enrich their knowledge in working environment, sharpen their communications and time management skills, and start building up a network of contacts for their future development.
