Eglin AFB Extension Serv- ice: R. Yii. The Department of Electrical Engineering offers the Master of Engineering, Master of Science, Engineer, and Doctor of Philosophy degrees. The Department offers graduate study and research in biomedical en- gineering, computer engineering, communications, systems and circuits, physical electronics, applied electronics, fields and waves, electric energy engi- neering, electromechanical systems, and other engi- neering areas. Graduate students in the Department of Electrical Engineering have bachelor's degrees from many areas -electrical engineering, other engineering dis- ciplines, mathematics, physics, chemistry, and other technical fields. The Department of Electrical Engi- neering offers both thesis and nonthesis options for the master's degree. In the thesis option a student shall complete 33 semester credit hours with a max- imum of six semester credit hours and a minimum of one semester credit hour of EEL 6971 (Research for Master's Thesis). The supervisory committee shall de- termine the appropriate number of thesis hours a stu- dent shall be required to take for the thesis. Thus, 27 or more semester hours of course work are required. The course requirements include a minimum of 12 hours of 6000-level course credit and a minimum of 12 hours at the 5000- or 6000-level in electrical engi- neering. Excluded from satisfying these course re- quirements are EEL 6910 (Supervised Research), EEL 6940 (Supervised Teaching), and EEL 6971 (Research for Master's Thesis). No more than eight hours of In- dividual Work (EEL 5905 or EEL 6905) may be counted toward the degree. Students.who accept research as- sistantships will normally take the thesis option. In the nonthesis option a student shall complete 33 semester credit hours with a maximum of four semester credit hours of Individual Work (EEL 5905 or EEL 6905). The course requirements include a mini- mum of 24 semester credit hours of 6000-level course credit and a minimum of 18 semester credit hours at the 5000- or 6000-level in electrical engineering. Ex- cluded from satisfying these course requirements are EEL 6910 (Supervised Research), EEL 6932 (Graduate Seminar), EEL 6940 (Supervised Teaching) and EEL 6971 (Research for Master's Thesis). All prospective doctoral students must take the Ph.D. entrance examination at the earliest opportun- ity. The examination which may include both written and oral portions can be administered at any time during the year. Study for the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering at the University of Florida by qualified master's de- gree recipients at the University of Central Florida is facilitated by a cooperative arrangement in which ap- propriate members of the faculty of UCF are members of the graduate faculty of the University of Florida. The following course listing indicates the major areas of faculty interest.
