Engineering MS

  1. Program Description:  The Master of Science in Engineering prepares individuals to apply mathematical and scientific principles to solve a wide variety of practical problems in industry.  Includes an engineering core along with specialization track options in different fields of engineering.

Graduates of the MS in Engineering will have the ability to:

  • Utilize advanced engineering principles, mathematical models, and computational tools to solve complex technical problems.
  • Design, execute, and analyze experiments or simulations to advance engineering knowledge.
  • Identify, formulate, and address real-world engineering problems with creative and effective solutions.
  • Present engineering concepts, research findings, and project outcomes clearly in written, oral, and visual formats.
  • Adhere to ethical standards, regulatory requirements, and best practices in engineering.
  • Adapt to evolving technologies and methodologies through continuous learning and professional development.

Semester Credit Hours required for completion is 36 SCH. This is for both the thesis and non-thesis option. There will be and engineering core (18 SCH) and three specialization tracks (EE- Electrical Engineering, IE-Industrial Engineering and ConE- Construction Engineering)
