- The MSc in engineering science is offered in a number of emphasis areas such as aeroacoustics, chemical engineering, civil engineering, computational hydroscience, computer science, electrical engineering, electromagnetics, environmental engineering, geology, geological engineering, hydrology, mechanical engineering, material science, and engineering, and telecommunications.
- Students have to successfully complete 30 credit hours.
- A student also has to complete the requirements for an emphasis area. For most emphasis areas, the degree may be completed as a:
- Thesis option (30-hour program, to include 6 hours of thesis),
- Nonthesis option (30- hour program, to include a minimum of 3 hours of a design-oriented project course), or
- Coursework option (30-hour program, to include a final oral examination in front of a committee, but no written report)
- MSc in Engineering Science with an emphasis in Computer Science prepares a student with advanced technical knowledge and communication skills for pursuing a career in industry, engineering research, and development, public service, or for doctoral work.
