Master of Science in Engineering Science and Mechanics

The M.S. in Engineering Science and Mechanics is an intensive one-year, 32-credit program requiring completion of a scholarly paper. Engineering Science and Mechanics is inherently interdisciplinary in its integration of a strong foundation in science and mathematics with the engineering disciplines. This is interpreted in its broadest context and is applied to multiple aspects of engineering design, materials, and systems, and includes, but is not limited to, electronics, structures, energy (nuclear, fossil, petrochemical, wind) power plants and piping, civil infrastructure (bridges, buildings, roads), communications and electronics, transportation (automotive and hybrid vehicles, aircraft and aerospace, ships), materials behavior, the human body, and even the brain.
