This change ensures that graduates are better positioned to stand out in a rapidly evolving job market.

What this means for the future
The updated MS-ECE degree name is part of a larger effort to ensure that the department’s degree titles reflect the full scope of innovative research and learning opportunities available while also aligning with the evolving needs of students and employers in today’s interconnected world.Ìý
