Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Doctor of Science in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, Duration

The general requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy or Doctor of Science are given under the section on Graduate Education. Doctoral candidates are expected to participate fully in the educational program of the department and to perform thesis work that is a significant contribution to knowledge.

As preparation, MIT students in the Master of Engineering in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science program will be expected to complete that program. Students who have received a bachelor's degree outside the department, but who have not completed a master's degree program, will normally be expected to complete the requirements for the Master of Science degree described earlier, including a thesis.

Students who have completed a master's degree elsewhere without a significant research component will be required to register for and carry out a research accomplishment equivalent to a master's thesis before being allowed to proceed in the doctoral program.

For more information on this course, you can get in touch with our admission counselors for a detailed discussion and understanding of the requirements. Just share your details and we will reach out to you for a FREE session.
