Master of Science
The Department of
Electronics and Computer Technology of Indiana State University has
a program for earning a master of science degree to meet the needs
of individuals preparing for career advancement or improvement. This
program prepares students for careers in such areas as:
electronics quality control, technical sales, field representation, electrical power, or computer control of
industrial processes.
COURSES
A minimum of 32
semester hours, one-half of which must be taken at the 600 level, is
required for completion of the master's degree in Electronics and
Computer Technology. Course work within the program consists of
three phases:
Content (23 semester hours)
During this
preliminary program phase, students acquire or improve competencies
relating to advanced electronics, industrial control, and computer
technology. Course work includes the following:
Research:
3 semester hours from Industrial Technology Education, Manufacturing
and Construction Technology, or Electronics and Computer Technology
698.
Major: 9 semester hours
selected from Electronics and Computer Technology courses 537, 542,
623, 634, 661, 663.
Major Electives: 2-5
semester hours as approved by the advisor.
Electives: 6-9 semester
hours from courses outside the department as approved by the
advisor.
Application (6 semester hours)
During this
second phase of the program, students incorporate content
principles, procedures, and skills to effectively demonstrate:
familiarity with tools of research; scholarship in their field; an
ability to work independently; and an ability to present results of
the investigation. Completion of these six semester hours may
include: ECT 699(thesis) or ECT 697 (major project) for six semester
hours.
Integration (3 semester hours)
As a culminating
experience, all electronics and computer technology master's
candidates must schedule a seminar near the end of their academic
program. The seminar is designed to help students assimilate their
previous study in the discipline. Students will enroll in ECT 680
(Seminar: Analysis of Technical Systems) for three semester hours
or, with approval of their advisor, may substitute MCT 602 (Seminar
in Industrial Professional Technology).
