Prospective Students

To schedule a visit to the University of Wyoming, call 1-800-DIAL-WYO. Be sure to mention your interest in engineering. For more information on how to become an engineering student, see the College of Engineering and Applied Science Prospective Students page.

Current Students

Students entering the BS/MS program in the junior or senior year will remain classified as undergraduate students. Upon completing the necessary degree requirements, they will receive the BS degree and be officially admitted into the MS program. Overlapping credit as defined by program policy will be applied to both degrees.

For general student information see the College of Engineering and Applied Science Current Students page.

Professional Societies

Involvement in professional organizations is encouraged early in the student's career. The department has a very active student chapter of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). This group has received recognition as the outstanding IEEE student chapter in the thirteen-state Rocky Mountain region. Industrial field trips, nationally known speakers, and social functions are sponsored by the IEEE student chapter. Many students participate in the annual and national IEEE design contests and paper competitions.

Accreditation

The Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering curriculum at the University of Wyoming are accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of the Accreditation Board for Engineering and Technology. Graduate work may be completed for the M.S. or Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering.
