The Master of Engineering (MENG) is an advanced degree that combines materials engineering with professional development coursework. This program caters to working engineers seeking skill enhancement, individuals preparing for industry careers, and those potentially pursuing doctoral studies later. Participants tailor their curriculum to align with their academic interests or career aspirations.
The Materials Science & Engineering specialization provides instruction in discovering, designing, analyzing, characterizing, modeling, and applying contemporary engineering materials, with focus on metals, ceramics, alloys, and composite materials. The coursework consistently emphasizes core principles that connect material structure, manufacturing processes, characteristics, and functionality in practical applications. Given that technological progress often depends on innovative materials, materials science and engineering continues growing in significance.
UCONN College of Engineering's Materials Science and Engineering department ranks among the nation's top 25 public programs and holds the highest graduate engineering program ranking within UCONN Engineering.
MENG candidates may complete the program either part-time (frequently with employer support) or full-time. The Materials Science and Engineering concentration's MENG degree requirements are detailed in the Plan of Study.

Qualification Requirements
Admission to the doctoral program is based upon careful assessment of the student's potential for creative research in materials science and engineering. Applicants for this competitive program will normally demonstrate outstanding promise based on their bachelor's degree and related experience, or have already completed an outstanding master's degree program. For admission to the MSE masters programs, student applications and recommendation letters must also demonstrate past excellence and future potential.
Absolute requirements for entry into the UConn Graduate School:
