Graduate Program Options
Our college offers a variety of programs to continue your engineering education. This includes graduate-level certificates, online programs, and degrees including master of engineering (MEng), master of science (MS), and doctor of philosophy (PhD) options.
Master of Engineering (MEng)
The non-thesis MEng degree appeals to students seeking to expand their skills for the technical workforce. Students in this program gain pragmatic skills and knowledge, focusing on direct industry application more than research. The program is designed to have you job-ready in just one year.
Master of Science (MS)
The MS degree appeals to students interested in research and greater depth in a particular engineering field. This degree culminates in a research experience and thesis, allowing students to go on to doctoral programs or occupations that require more specialized knowledge.
Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)
We offer PhD degrees in each department. Some programs offer a PhD post-bachelor’s degree and some post-master’s degree. Refer to the department web sites for program, course and department-specific offerings.
