ECE - Electrical and Computer Engineering

Which should you choose? Please read the FAQ on this subject to help you decide.
WHO SHOULD APPLY
A person may apply to the doctoral program with either a 4-year BS, BA, or a master's degree in a relevant field. Persons with 3-year technical degrees are generally not allowed to apply for graduate study at Northwestern University.
WHEN TO APPLY
Our general practice is to admit students in the Fall Quarter. The only mechanism for Winter or Spring Quarter admission involves the intervention of one of our faculty, who must agree to support the student in question as a research assistant for the remainder of the academic year. To explore this possibility, contact individual professors listed in our department's faculty directory.
You can view a great deal of general information about requirements and policies at The Graduate School website [http://www.tgs.northwestern.edu]
