4+1 Accelerated Master's Degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering

Riccio College of Engineering

As a student in electrical and computer engineering, you’ll learn about the technology and systems that power nearly everything we do, from nanoelectronics and next-gen sensing systems, to quantum computing, cybersecurity, robotics, and the Internet of things.  

This accelerated five-year coursework-based program allows up to 12 approved credit hours taken as a UMass undergraduate to count towards our 30-credit master's degree, and up to 6 of those hours can be double-counted to meet both BS and MS degree requirements.
