Graduate Transfer Credits - Electrical & Computer Engineering

Transfer Credits to Graduate Degree

The ECE department encourages students to transfer eligible credits immediately upon entering the graduate program to ensure that credits have not expired and that a student can properly prepare a plan for their degree.

Eligibility Criteria

In order for credit to be applied to toward a student’s graduate degree requirements and Program of Study, the credits must meet the following criteria:

Are approved for transfer by the University of Utah ECE department
Were 5000- level or higher, or otherwise considered graduate level coursework
Were taken within 3 years of request for transfer approval
Were from a course that received a B grade or higher; “credit only” grades cannot be transferred. This includes Graduate Seminar taken as a University of Utah undergraduate student.
Were not applied towards a student’s previous undergraduate or graduate degree requirement. This includes credit from the University of Utah if it was previously used for a degree at another institution.
