I would like to apply for the masters program. What are my chances of receiving financial support from the department?
Our department significantly favors PhD students when it comes to offering financial support. M.S. students are considered when there are positions remaining open after all PhD students have been considered, although currently M.S. students can and do get financial support from the department. Outside the EECS department, our graduate students can often find assistantships in other departments on campus due to their specialty and job skills.
