Talk:UCLA Electrical Engineering

Academics:
The undergraduate curriculum allows students to specialize in one of three emphasis areas or options. The three options are structured as an Electrical Engineering degree and the only degree offered by the Electrical Engineering Department to undergraduates is the Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering.

The Electrical Engineering (EE) option is the regular option providing students with preparation in electrical engineering with a range of required and elective courses across several disciplines. The Computer Engineering (CE) option provides students with preparation in embedded systems, and software and hardware issues. Students replace some of the senior courses in the regular EE option with computer engineering-oriented courses or computer science courses. The Biomedical Engineering (BE) option provides students with exposure to additional chemistry and life sciences courses and helps them meet most of the pre-med preparation requirements so that students will be prepared for careers in bio-engineering, medicine, or electrical engineering.

Undergraduate education in the UCLA Electrical Engineering Department provides:

1. Fundamental knowledge in mathematics, physical sciences, and electrical engineering.

2. The opportunity to specialize in specific areas of interest or career aspiration.

3. Intensive training in problem solving, laboratory skills, and design skills.

4. A well-rounded education that includes communication skills, the ability to function well on a team, an appreciation for ethical behavior, and the ability to engage in lifelong learning.

M.S. and Ph.D. Graduate Programs Admission to the UCLA Electrical Engineering graduate program is quite competitive. Recently admitted applicants have had a mean grade point average of 3.8, while their Graduate Record Examination scores on the Verbal, Quantitative, and Analytical sections have averaged 61%, 93%, and 84%, respectively.

Applications for admission are invited from graduates of recognized colleges and universities worldwide. Selection is based on promise of success in graduate studies and research, which is judged largely on the student's previous college record, statement of purpose, and letters of recommendation.
