Grading System

GPA Grade Point Average


What is a credit hour?

1 credit hour equals 1 hour of lecture

A graduate level course at IIT is usually 3 credit hours

So, a 3 credit course at IIT means that the course is offered three times per week or once a week for

(3 c.h. x 1 hour) 3 hours


THIS IS Illinois Tech!

Magnetic tape data storage


Marvin Camras (Alum of IIT) IIT B.S. EE 1940; M.S. EE 1942 Inventor - Magnetic Tape

Born in Chicago in 1916, Camras was known to his family as an "inventor" by the age of five

In the late 1930s, Camras was studying electrical engineering at the Armour Institute of Technology (now the Illinois Institute of Technology).

Camras spent a fifty-year career at Illinois Institute of Technology, where he taught until 1994.

By the time of his death in 1995, he had earned over 500 US and international patents for his work. He was inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame in 1985, and in 1990 he won the National Medal of Technology.


Marty Cooper ( Alum of IIT (B.S. EE 1950; M.S. EE 1957) Inventor Cell Phone

1st Cell Phone 1973 ( The Brick ) weighed 2.5 pounds!! Named one of the best inventors of all time for his work on the first personal cell phone in the "Best Inventions of the Year" article in the October 30 Time Magazine 2007 2nd invention A new wireless

Internet system called iBURST

that puts high-speed data transmission at your fingertips!!


Ed Kaplan (Alumnus of IIT) (B.S. ME 1965) Inventor of the Bar Code printer

CEO and Chairman, Zebra Technologies

Ed Kaplan, one of Chicago's most successful technology entrepreneurs, studied at IIT, where he graduated with a bachelors in mechanical engineering

At 26 years old, Kaplan he co-invented the Bar Code printer called the Zebra and also created the first thermal transfer printer to print barcodes directly on products


IIT News ( September 2013)

Prof. Carlo Segre (IIT Prof in Physics) received $3.4 Million to develop a prototype for a rechargeable nanoelectrofuel flow battery that may extend the range of EVs (Electric Vehicles) to at least 500 miles & provide a straightforward & rapid method of refueling.

Current EV ranges are 100-200 miles with recharging taking up to 8 hours

Prof. Segre is Director of the Center for Synchroton Radiation @ IIT & Deputy Director of MRCAT beamline at the Advanced Photon Source @ Argonne Natl Labs

Success Story

Julien Branlard begins work at Fermilab today as the first

John Bardeen Engineering Fellow. A recent graduate of the

Illinois Institute of Technology, Julien Branlard is

the first recipient of the John Bardeen Engineering

Fellowship.

"Julien will make an outstanding addition to

Fermilab," said Ralph Pasquinelli, Accelerator Division RF Department Head and the inspiration behind the fellowship.

"He's an articulate, talented team player who will hit the

ground running with his outstanding engineering skills."

Branlard began his studies in France and transferred to

the Illinois Institute of Technology in 2000. After graduating with a Ph.D. in electrical engineering last

December, he began looking for a way to continue his work in

the United States. Fermilab Today 2005

TOEFL of 90 iBT or IELTS score of 6.5 or PTE of 63

GRE general (specified minimums per dept.)

Research project duration (4-6 months depending on the requirements of the home institution)

Completion of a Masters ( 30 or 32 credits) in 1 year with research project (non-thesis) or Proyecto fin de carrera


MASTERS DEGREE at IIT Masters degree = 30, 32, 33 or 34 credits

(Each course usually equals 3 hours )

i.e. 3 contact hours per week with a professor)

= less 6 credits

M.S. at IIT in 1 year (2 semesters)

34 6 = 28 credits 33 - 6 = 27 credits

32 6 = 26 credits 30 6 = 24 credits


DOUBLE DEGREE - BENEFITS

Completion of Masters degree at IIT in

1 year (12 months)

Possibility of obtaining the equivalent

qualifying degree from home university

Permission to work in accordance with F1 visa requirements for 1 additional year (+ 17 months extension) in the U.S. if major belongs to STEM category

Starting salary of IIT graduates quoted as being higher than the national average


Masters Degree (Engineering/Science)

Example of a 32-credit hour program

24 credits = ~7 courses

1 - 5 credits = Research project option

(No. of credits awarded for research is dependent on the department at IIT per the required courses to be completed)

26 credits = Masters degree

CHOICE OF COURSES AT IIT

IMPORTANT POINTS TO REMEMBER: Not all courses are offered all of the time

Some courses will be offered once every two years

Some courses will be offered once every year

Some courses will be offered each semester

Some courses may not be offered/opened if there are less than 10 students registered for the courses

What you should do:

Regarding electives, discuss with your professor at your home university, the elective courses you will need to take for validation & alternatives & submit only once admitted

In this case, it is imperative that once selected, you submit complete documents to IIT for an early decision well before
