The Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering offers degree programs leading to the Post Graduate Diploma (P.G.D), Master of Engineering (M.Eng.), Master of Science (M.Sc.), and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.). Our department's graduate program is one of the largest on campus. In the 2006-2007 academic year, enrollment was 99 graduate students and 22 graduate degrees were conferred (19 M.Sc. and 3 Ph.D).

Graduate students conduct research under the supervision of a faculty member in one of four research areas. Our research programs and laboratories are supported by four technologists, and also by staff from the Engineering Computer Centre. Several professors emeriti continue to lead active research programs. The Department is home to two Canada Research Chairs, one in optoelectronic materials Dr. Safa Kasap, and the other in micro and nano fabrication, Dr. Sven Achenbach.The University of Saskatchewan is home to the Canadian Light Source (CLS), Canada's national synchrotron research facility.

A number of research projects involve industrial partners who provide funding, expertise, and access to special research facilities. As a reference, during 2006-2007, Electrical & Computer Engineering faculty received a total of $1.2 million in research funding, with about $527 thousand of this total coming from the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC).
