Electrical and Computer Engineering is a research-centered department that understands the industry demands for a broad skill set and innovative research and design. Courses are not strictly textbook based. Faculty in the department know the subjects taught and research intimately and are deeply involved. They often craft their courses to reflect the latest available knowledge and techniques, which ensures students are adequately equipped to face a changing field.

The Master of Science in Engineering (MSE) degree program includes courses from several areas of Electrical and Computer Engineering. In addition, it offers the following specialized MSE focus areas:

• Artificial Intelligence and Data Science
• Computational and Biomorphic Systems
• Computational Systems Biology and Bioinformatics
• Computer & Neuromorphic Engineering
• Control Systems
• Language and Speech Processing
• Image Processing and Analysis
• Integrated Circuits and Microsystems
• Photonics and Optoelectronics
• Signal Processing & Machine Learning

A new option is also now available called the Human Language Technology Masters-Level Concentration.

Regardless of which option students choose, an advanced degree from the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Johns Hopkins University will significantly enhance their career possibilities. Program graduates are always in high demand.
