The Master of Science in Engineering offers students a dynamic, rigorous curriculum and research setting, equipping them to synthesize insights across disciplines and tackle challenges that transcend conventional academic boundaries.
Our mission is to create, refine, and share knowledge and technologies for managing interdisciplinary engineering systems.

The MS-E program delivers a flexible yet demanding academic framework that enables students to combine findings from diverse fields and solve multi-dimensional problems outside traditional engineering domains. It offers comprehensive training in scientific and engineering principles focused on addressing intricate issues that cross specialized engineering fields. This degree mandates 24 credit hours of coursework, featuring ENGR 6910 (Research Methods) and one seminar credit (ENGR 8950), plus six thesis research hours. Students are encouraged to take six math credits and six statistics credits, with remaining courses aligned with their thesis focus. For more information, consult the graduate coordinator.

The Mechanical Engineering specialization within the M.S. in Engineering delivers focused expertise through an intensive curriculum and cutting-edge research across three key domains: Design, Optimization and Manufacturing; Energy, Fluid and Thermal Systems; and Mechanics and Materials. The thesis track allows students to pursue groundbreaking research on critical societal issues, while the non-thesis option provides enhanced professional development through additional coursework and an engineering project.
