30 Hours
The M.S.E. degree requires a minimum of 30 credit hours of study for students possessing an accredited undergraduate degree in engineering. Those who have an undergraduate degree from a non-ABET accredited engineering program or in a closely related technical field, such as computer science or physics, will be considered for admission based on their college work and an appropriately proposed plan of study.
A graduate of the Master of Science in Engineering (M.S.E.) degree will be able to demonstrate:
- The ability to critically examine and manage contemporary challenges of the engineering profession, including professional ethics, diversity, and globalization
- Ethical awareness and decision making relative to contemporary engineering practice.
- Awareness and respect for diversity and global issues.
- That they are broadly equipped to both contribute to and lead multidisciplinary engineering projects.
- Appropriate solution strategies.
- The ability to perform mature technical assessment and evaluation.
- Scholarship with depth beyond the B.S. degree with the students’ chosen field of specialization.
- The ability to perform individual research.
- The ability to communicate in appropriate scholarly forms for the discipline.
