Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering

For Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering, tuition comes to 36,760 USD per year.

The Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering at Khalifa University of Science and Technology in Abu Dhabi combines the study of electrical systems with computer hardware and software, reflecting the increasing overlap between these two engineering disciplines. Subjects covered in this field typically include power and energy systems, signal processing, telecommunications, digital and embedded systems, and computer architecture, giving students the flexibility to focus on either the electrical or computing side of the discipline, or on areas that combine both. At the graduate level, students generally take advanced coursework in their chosen specialization and often complete a research project or thesis that addresses a specific technical problem, which may involve hardware design, software development, or a combination of both depending on the student's focus. Laboratory and project-based work are common, since much of electrical and computer engineering involves building and testing systems rather than purely theoretical analysis. Graduates pursue careers as electrical engineers, computer hardware engineers, embedded systems engineers, or telecommunications engineers across industries including technology, energy, telecommunications, and defense, and some continue into doctoral research. The breadth of the field means graduates can often move between hardware-focused and software-focused roles over the course of their careers. The program is delivered in English at Khalifa University of Science and Technology, located in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. Admission typically requires a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or a closely related discipline.
