Admission to the MS program requires a bachelor’s degree in computer engineering, electrical engineering or computer science from an accredited institution. Students not meeting these requirements are considered for admission on an individual basis and may be admitted subject to the completion of appropriate undergraduate courses to remove any deficiencies in preparation. Topics in which deficiencies must be removed include logic circuits design, state analysis and synthesis techniques, computer architecture, data structures and algorithms and C or C++ programming.

General Requirements

Must hold a Bachelor's Degree from an accredited institution, which includes a minimum of FOUR YEARS of full-time study

Attention will be given to the programs accredited by ABET (www.abet.org) and programs accredited/approved by other various regional accrediting associations

Admission to a field of study that is different from your Bachelor's degree may require completion of prerequisite courses

Bachelor of Engineering degrees (based on 180+ ECTS credits) may also be considered.

Payment of Tuition

Enrolling first-semester graduate students, either for Fall or Spring terms, can expect to receive e-mailed information (through your official NU email address) regarding tuition expenses approximately six weeks before the start of the semester. Tuition due dates are set by the Office of the Bursar, and all inquiries regarding payment of tuition should be directed to that office. Please monitor your NYU e-mail for further information, tuition liability policies, and deadline dates. Tuition payment options and payment plans are listed on the NYU Bursar website.

Computer engineering makes it possible for us to telecommute from home, check our e-mail on the go, and video conference with clients from around the world. But laptops and information networks aren’t the only products computer engineers develop; they reconstruct genomes, design robots, and conceive software to make businesses more efficient.At the School of Engineering, we want to place our students at the forefront of the telecommunications, networks, and microelectronics industries. The MS program in Computer Engineering gets you there. By teaching you the principles underlying the design and integration of computer components and systems, we make sure you have a base from which to launch improvements in the field.

Our collaborative relationships with industry and government agencies help you reach your potential, and you gain practical experience that adds to in-class explorations in a number of critical areas — everything from VLSI verification and testing to embedded systems design and computer architecture.

Many fields are open to our students, including information technology, computer design and engineering, operating systems and networks, computer architecture, and software applications, among others.
