The Master of Science in Wireless and Network Engineering is a uniquely integrated program bridging studies in both electrical engineering and computer engineering to prepare students for specialized careers in the rapidly evolving communication networked systems workplace. Offered by the Institute for the Wireless Internet of Things and the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, the program aims to prepare highly qualified researchers and a specialized workforce that will lead the future of our hyperconnected society.
Offered by the Institute for the Wireless Internet of Things and the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, the MS in Wireless and Network Engineering program equips students to become qualified researchers and specialized professionals in our hyperconnected world. Students will learn to understand, design, implement, and test current and future wireless and wired communication networks. Merging studies from technical fields traditionally pursued separately, this program integrates concepts from both electrical engineering (communications, signal processing, and control) and computer engineering (computer networking, security, and policy). Students will gain a multifaceted skill set in the field through a combination of coursework, master’s thesis research, and/or industry experience. The program also covers policy and ethics concepts relating to communication networks. Extensive co-op and research opportunities are offered through Northeastern’s Institute for the Wireless Internet of Things, as well as major companies in the wireless, defense, computing, and manufacturing fields.
Program Objectives
Prepare a highly qualified workforce for careers in the fast-changing, high-growth communication networks field.
Equip students with a comprehensive skill set through integrated computer engineering and electrical engineering studies.
Provide hands-on experiences through industry and government collaborations, as well as Northeastern’s own advanced technology facilities.
Career Outlook
Cisco projects that by 2023, 66% of the global population will be internet users, and the number of devices connected to the internet will be more than three times the global population. An estimated 70% of the global population will have mobile connectivity—10% through 5G devices. In the coming years, 5G and 6G systems will affect every part of the U.S. economy, creating 4.6 million jobs by 2034. Qualified applicants will be in high demand for jobs across educational institutions, federal agencies, and national research labs. Graduates of the MS in Wireless and Network Engineering will come to these careers with skills ranging from hardware design and electromagnetic characterization to communication techniques and networking protocols for 5G, 6G, and beyond.
