» Program Overview

As a graduate student in electrical and computer engineering (MSECE) at Lawrence Tech, you will have an opportunity to learn from and work with our faculty whose research has been funded by corporations as well as the national foundations. You will become accustomed to analyzing, interpreting, implementing, writing and talking about the latest techniques and technologies, while putting them into perspective, always aware of professional issues such as ethics and lifelong learning.

Lawrence Tech faculty  will help you sharpen your skills in all aspects of computer and electrical engineering so that you can take your place in this vital field and create next-generation products, services and information systems, continuing to fuel our technology driven world.

Two Degree Options:
  • Coursework only: requiring 16 hours of core courses and 16 hours of technical electives.
  • Coursework plus thesis: requiring a combination 20 credit hours of any of the core and technical electives courses, plus a ten-credit-hour thesis for a total of 30 credit hours.

Courses are offered in late afternoon and evenings for the convenience of working students.

Use Your Cell Phone as a Document Camera in Zoom

  • What you will need to have and do
  • Download the mobile Zoom app (either App Store or Google Play)
  • Have your phone plugged in
  • Set up video stand phone holder

From Computer

Log in and start your Zoom session with participants

From Phone

  • Start the Zoom session on your phone app (suggest setting your phone to “Do not disturb” since your phone screen will be seen in Zoom)
  • Type in the Meeting ID and Join
  • Do not use phone audio option to avoid feedback
  • Select “share content” and “screen” to share your cell phone’s screen in your Zoom session
  • Select “start broadcast” from Zoom app. The home screen of your cell phone is now being shared with your participants.

To use your cell phone as a makeshift document camera

  • Open (swipe to switch apps) and select the camera app on your phone
  • Start in photo mode and aim the camera at whatever materials you would like to share
  • This is where you will have to position what you want to share to get the best view – but you will see ‘how you are doing’ in the main Zoom session.
