Gain Technical Expertise and Leadership Skills

A Master’s degree is an essential beginning for a long-term career in Electrical Engineering and in Computer Science. A Master’s degree will allow you a deeper technical specialization, giving you both a head start in your career and a long-term advantage by making it easier for you to track new developments and change direction in your career. Berkeley’s Master of Engineering program goes beyond technical specialization to offer courses in engineering leadership and a team-oriented capstone project. The project allows you to practice, with guidance, the technical and non-technical skills that you learn in the classroom.

Our M.Eng. in EECS program offers innovative graduate courses on scientific and technical topics, organized by technical concentrations that match your interest. However, success in engineering requires skills that transcend the scientific and technical. In a modern engineering development organization, you almost always have to work in teams, and you must communicate your ideas and influence people (colleagues, investors, customers) through oral and written communication. Even as you tackle difficult technical challenges, you have to consider the match between your ideas and the needs of eventual users, how your choices give your organization a competitive advantage, and how to protect your intellectual property. Increasingly, you have to develop an idea in a multi-disciplinary environment, consider complex systems issues as well as detailed technical issues, and position yourself in an ecosystem of suppliers, and complementary products and strategic relationships. Our Masters of Engineering curriculum has anticipated all this, and prepares you for these real-world challenges.

Berkeley is one of the top EECS programs in the world. Here, you’ll learn from superb faculty, as well as an unparalleled student body. Join us for an academic year and undertake the academic experience of a lifetime. You’ll be better prepared for a satisfying and lasting career in engineering design, development, and management.

Scholarships

Funding an education as an international student at a university in the United States can be challenging. International students are ineligible for federal, state, and need-based university financial aid. Only U.S. citizens, eligible non-citizens and AB 540 eligible students can be awarded federal, state and/or institutional need-based financial aid.

We offer the following suggestions to international students:

Research scholarship opportunities from private organizations both within the U.S. and in your home country. As a suggestion to get started, consider your background, your future or current field of study, and possible career paths. Use these topics to search for organizations that may have some connection to your interests and background, then apply for available grants and scholarships.
Research the specific department you are interested in by doing a search on the main Berkeley website for their name, and then looking for awards or scholarships they may have for incoming students.
Graduate students can seek financial assistance from their departments, including Graduate Student Researcher and Graduate Student Instructorships, which are under the direct control of each department. For information about graduate fellowships or outside sources of financial assistance, please contact the Graduate Fellowships Office.

Helpful Resources

Research websites, such as OURS National Scholarships Office, FinAid, FastWeb, or the Cal Alumni Association to search for grants or scholarships.

FAQs

No, even if you submit the application before the deadline, we cannot update your application after you have submitted it. Please make sure to check that your application is complete and all information and materials are correct before you submit.
It’s not uncommon for the online application to experience difficulties matching official test scores, but as long as you’ve entered valid/unexpired test scores into your application, requested that your official scores be sent to institution code 4833, and submitted your application by the deadline, then we can use your self-reported scores for the review process. If you are recommended for admission and we are still unable to locate your official scores, we will contact you.
Our department receives thousands of admissions applications per year, so our faculty members are unable to respond to admissions inquiries. Our Masters Student Services Advisor (see Contacts) will be happy to field any of your admissions questions.
We have numerous applicants who are “career changers” and our best advice for you is to show within your application that you have the requisite knowledge and skills to succeed in this challenging program. This can include coursework, projects, industry experience, publications, letters of recommendation, and more. Succeeding in courses at UC Berkeley Extension (or another institution) could be a useful addition to your application.
