M.Eng. in Electrical Engineering
Graduate studies in engineering at the University of Hartford lead to the Master of Engineering (M.Eng.). The program emphasizes applied design and stresses communication, which is very important for a successful career. The Master of Engineering program includes independent study requirements, which offer the opportunity to pursue design projects or self-directed study. The program, which offers specialty course work, applied mathematics, engineering management, and design project independent study, provides excellent preparation for an engineering career and for continued graduate study.
