Thank you for considering the University of Wisconsin-Madison, Electrical and Computer Engineering Department graduate program. Our graduate program application process is managed jointly by the Graduate School and each individual department. The Graduate School has a set of uniform basic requirements while our department has additional requirements to meet. Individual departments also manage the financial aid programs in terms of fellowship, and teaching assistantship. Research assistantships are awarded by individual faculty at any time during the year.

You will need the following information to complete the prescreening form:

GRE percentile scores
(verbal, quantitative, and analytical)

Exceptions:

  • You have completed two full-time semesters in residence at a degree-granting program in the U.S.
