EE Ph.D. Program
The Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering offers a program of graduate study leading to the Doctor of Philosophy Degree. The program has three basic components:
- Selected courses, primarily in electrical engineering
- Examinations, written and oral
- Independent research culminating in a dissertation
Each student’s plan of study is individually formulated around these components through consultation with an Advisory Committee.
Funded research opportunities exist for doctoral students in the following multidisciplinary centers, laboratories, and industry-sponsored programs. For more information on these opportunities, please visit ECE Research Labs
Our requirements for the PhD degree are given on the following pages. Some of these requirements are university-wide and can also be found in the Texas Tech University Catalog under Graduate school.
