Welcome to the ECE Graduate Program!
Welcome to the Graduate Program in
Electrical and Computer Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin.
We are a large and diverse community of students, faculty, and staff
representing many technical areas within nine major research divisions. The
pursuit of a graduate degree requires a special commitment from both the
student and their academic program. We provide the support and service our
students need to succeed in our highly-ranked department. Please take
advantage of the information we have provided on these web pages, but if
you cannot find the information you information need, please feel free to
contact our ECE Graduate Office staff.Dr. Dean Neikirk
