The MS Non-Thesis program caters to professionals pursuing a practical career-focused degree. Designed for those aiming to strengthen their expertise in IE, it prepares graduates for roles in regulatory bodies, consulting firms, natural resource management, and similar fields. While no thesis is mandatory, students have opportunities to participate in research. Instead, they complete an in-depth technical paper that critically evaluates existing research. This option isn't ideal for building academic research credentials. Most students finish in 18 months, though an accelerated 12-month path is possible with a heavy course load.
