Electrical, Computer, and Energy Engineering
The Electrical, Computer, and Energy Engineering (ECEE) Department at CU dates back to the 1890s and the earliest days of the Engineering College. There are 40 full-time faculty members in ECEE along with a host of adjunct, research, and jointly appointed faculty. Annual research expenditures are near $6M. Research grants from NASA, DARPA, the National Science Foundation, NOAA, and collaborative industrial and military funding provide support for qualified graduate students. The program also has unique facilities and equipment for experimental and theoretical training, and for conducting subject-specific research.

Concentration Areas of Study and Research
Biomedical engineering, communications and signal processing, computer and software engineering, dynamics, robotics, and controls, electromagnetics, RF and microwaves, optics and photonics, power electronics and renewable energy systems, remote sensing, nanostructures and devices and VLSI/CAD.

Degrees Offered:
•ME, MS, PhD
.Degree Details:
ME
The master of engineering (ME) is a technical management oriented degree, specially tailored for those individuals who anticipate becoming technical managers or entrepreneurs. The ME requires 30 semester hours of course work. Up to half of the course work is allowed to be business and/or management courses.
MS
The master of science (MS) degree is the first postgraduate degree for individuals seeking a technical or research career in ECEE. Students can do either a thesis or non-thesis option. The MS requires completion of 30 credit hours. In the non-thesis option, all 30 hours are technical course work; in the thesis option, 4-6 hours of the total 30 are thesis study.

PhD
The doctor of philosophy (PhD) is the terminal degree for individuals seeking a technical or research career in ECEE. It requires completion of an MS, 30 hours of dissertation, passing of a preliminary and comprehensive examination, and a successful dissertation defense. There is a foreign language requirement.
NOTE: If you intend ultimately to pursue the PhD degree, it is best to apply directly to our PhD program rather than first apply to our MS program.

Admissions Requirements:
1.Hold a baccalaureate degree from a college or university of recognized standing (or the equivalent), submit transcripts evidencing same.

2.Have adequate technical preparation to enter graduate study in ECEE.

3.Have an undergraduate grade point average (GPA) of 3.00 of higher. NOTE: Provisional admission is sometimes possible for applicants with lower GPAs.

4.Submit GRE general exam scores if applying for the MS or Ph.D. degrees (GRE scores are not required for admission to the ME program).

5.Provide four letters of recommendation from qualified referees.

6.Provide a statement of purpose describing the applicant’s goals and interests.

7.Provide, for non-native English speakers only, certification of adequate spoken and written English. A TOEFL score greater than 600 (paper-based), 250 (computer-based) or 100 (internet-based) is desired. Equivalently 1+ years (evidenced by transcripts) of prior instruction at a U.S. university or at a university in a country with English as one of its official languages may suffice.

CE新生感受：
发现地里关于cuboulder的信息还是比较少的，每年来的人也很少，目测今年ecee决定来的亚系黄种人大概7个，其中两个可能是韩国人，中国学生5个，有两个博士；印度学生大概占了新生的70%；这里包括了ecee所有专业ms phd meng的学生。中国学生最终决定来的非常少，我觉得原因可能有下面几个：1:cu boulder deadline太早，10月底；2:学院网站上要求托福100，我只有87，也录了，不过另一个北邮妹子是托福100，我觉得90+应该不会被刷；3:本科生综合排名比较低，国内知名度不高 4:地理位置在Roky Mountain旁边，觉得不好找工作。 本科生中国学生很多。。。但是总共的国际学生只有1000+。总体上还是一个比较美国的party school，听到party school 有时候会觉得不好，觉得很cheap的意思，但是当你知道科罗拉多州集中了美国各种名山大川和11座滑雪场的时候，就能明白很多学生来这里的原因了

过来之后觉得cu boulder在地域上，或者在美国工科声誉还好，Boulder 丹佛地区工作机会也还好，可以关注一下

原先想学VLSI的，过来之后发现，数字IC设计居然没有研究生的课程！wtf，然后VLSI主要围绕Computer Aided Verification和formal verification, 这里可以提及一个大牛Fabio. 很偏算法和软件，所以，学院干脆直接给我安排了一个cs的老师，做program synthesis 和verification的，老师表示不懂VLSI,但是他的方向更那个相关，好吧－－   

所以，我选的课程基本都是软件相关的课程，ecee最有货的课程应该是power electronics，沿袭的Caltech的传统；另一个有货的就是embedded systems系列的三门课程，design， real－time， digital media，修完可以得到一个认证，很多老美都在修这三门课，课程爆满！    还有一个系列可以修三门课得到软件工程师的认证，不过觉得没有嵌入式的有货。当然ecee的学生最多可以修4门cs的课程，但是问了下cs的advisor，好像可以随时申请转cs，只要committee通过就行，所以准备14spring转cs，转了cs的话，ecee这边最多只能修2门课。

来之前觉得cs的课超级好，但是来了之后发现，cs也有很多超级水课，水也是相对找工作来说，ecee有些课程却很好，像real time digital media。 cs 课程里有很偏科研的，high performance computing，fundamental concepts of PL, computer aided verification 之类的课程，很难，但是我选课选晚了，只能选了PL 和verificaion（ps：小米告诉我8月5号选课，5号之前就可以了，坑爹啊）
也有编程practice比较多的课，最推荐的还是graphics系列的 computer version系列的，database 系列和network system系列，information retrieval systems系列，当然还有OS，算法课觉得design&analysis of Algorithms 比算法高级课程更使用，practice更多。 另外，cs系的主任是natural language processing 和 information retrieval system 方向的大牛。


学费也是可以一提的，学费很便宜，虽然网站公布的是那么多，但是对于工程学院的研究生来说，学校有福利的：可以修CAETE项目的课程，这个项目的课程跟学校on campus的是完全一样的课，只是为了提供远程教育设置的项目，但是这个项目里的课程，3学分一门课，只需要2300刀，一门正式的on campus的课程需要5000刀；但是对于研究生，学院承认CAETE的学分，转都不用转，因为课本来就跟on campus一样的，就是你通过CAETE系统选的课，可以照样on campus一样上，只是学费便宜了一半； 当然，为了维持你的签证状态，每学期还是要选一门on campus的课，但是整体算下来，学费还是减少了一些。
