PhD Engineering and Applied Science

The multidisciplinary Engineering and Applied Science Doctor of Philosophy degree program is offered by the College of Engineering, Design and Computing and consists of a primary and secondary concentration. Applicants apply and enter the program through one of four departments, called the host department, which is chosen based on the applicant's intended primary concentration of study. The four departments that serve as host departments are:

• Civil Engineering
• Computer Science and Engineering
• Electrical Engineering
• Mechanical Engineering

Each host department offers several concentrations. A list of concentrations can be found on each department's website. Go to engineering.ucdenver.edu to learn more.

The required secondary concentration can be chosen from any remaining department within the college, including the Department of Bioengineering. The secondary concentration may also be chosen from another CU Denver school or college. A student chooses his/her secondary concentration with the help of a faculty advisor after entering the program.

Graduate Education Policies and Procedures apply to this program.
