A century ago, the radio offered mass entertainment; 50 years later, television replaced it. Today we watch movies on handheld devices. Each evolutionary step was made possible by advances in electrical engineering. The PhD in Electrical and Computer Engineering program is filled with students and faculty keenly aware of this cycle of progress. They prize the Tandon School of Engineering's emphasis on invention, innovation, and entrepreneurship β what we call i2e β and they maintain that emphasis through top-flight laboratories and a fierce dedication to advanced research. Your studies with us will prepare you for a research career in electrical and computer engineering after graduation. But youβll also be capable of sharing these lessons with your own students, should you choose to teach at the university level. The optional Urban Science Doctoral Track is specifically designed for students who want to focus on urban science through a cohesive array of in-class and experiential learning activities, while pursuing their PhD at NYU Tandon. Doctoral track students will engage with CUSPβs urban science faculty, experts in methodological aspects pertaining to complexity (dynamical systems, multi-agent systems, network science, and risk engineering), informatics (AI, machine learning, and robotics), and sensing (Internet of Things, smart infrastructure, wireless).
