Electrical Engineering Program |
 |
| |
|
 |
| |
We provide a faculty that is committed to education and research, is accessible to students, and is highly qualified in their areas of expertise. And, we offer a good balance between theory and practice. Many of our required and elective courses have lab components. |
 |
 |
You will find that we have recently introduced a freshman design course option. This is intended to give students a design experience early in their engineering curriculum. In addition, the EE program has formalized the senior design project or capstone project as an elective. In this, a team of senior EE students work together to create a project of significant complexity that integrates elements learned in the EE curriculum to produce a visible product. |

Computer Engineering Program |
 |
| |
 |
 |
The Computer Engineering Program is offered jointly by the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department and the Computer Science Department in the College of Engineering at UC Santa Barbara. It is a multi-disciplinary program of study that promotes the integration of computer hardware and software through electrical engineering and computer science curriculums. |
|
 |
| |
Students may pursue a general program or choose to specialize in areas such as computer-aided design for hardware, computer systems, multimedia computing, computer networks, computer operation systems and computer languages, real-time computing, or very large-scale circuit design. |

Graduate Program
| Master of Science (MS) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) Degrees |
| |
| The ECE department offers both Master of Science (MS) and Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) degrees. Applicants must specify one of three programs: |
 |
| |
1. |
MS Program: This is for prospective students who are primarily interested in a Master's degree. It does not preclude entering the PhD program at a later date if you become more interested in research. |
 |
| |
2. |
MS/PhD Program: This is for students who have not yet earned a Master's degree and also intend to do research towards the PhD degree. |
 |
 |
3. |
PhD Program: This is for students who already have an MS degree and intend to do research towards the PhD degree. |
| |

| |
Research Areas |
| |
|
|
| |
The ECE department offers three emphases of research to applicants. Please refer to the Research Areas and Faculty Research page for information regarding Controls, Communications and Signal Processing, Computer Engineering, and Electronics and Photonics. |
