Total credit hours required for the degree = 31
Prerequisite, Concentration or Other Requirements:
* Research Project (3 cr minimum), specific to the student’s track as advised by the college/departmental track advisor, is also required. Students will register for an Independent Study/Advanced Project in the associated college/department. Depending on the departmental track, this may be combined – with additional credits – for the Master’s with thesis option, if applicable.
Engineering Tracks
For all Engineering Tracks, applicants must have a minimum of two semesters or three quarters (equivalent of one academic year) of calculus.
**Track-specific course requirements (minimum of 18 credits)
All students shall complete track-specific specialization courses, such that they have completed or transferred a total of 31 credits prior to graduation. Students must meet with the appropriate college/departmental track advisor to select the courses most relevant to the students’ career goals. Specialization courses will help the student attain depth in focused areas.
Thesis students only (6 credits)
Directed research/study from the associated department
