Entry requirements

Prerequisites to the M.S.O.A. Degree Program: There are no prerequisites for students with an undergraduate degree from an ABET-accredited industrial engineering program. For students with a degree other than an ABET-accredited industrial engineering degree, a number of prerequisite courses may be required. Students are expected to have completed mathematics courses through differential and integral calculus of several variables and vector calculus and linear algebra. Students are expected to have completed a calculus-based probability and statistics course. In addition, students are expected to have completed a computer programming course. Specific University of Arkansas courses that meet these prerequisites are available on-line through the INEG departmental web-pages.

Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.

Graduate entry terms: Fall, Spring and Summer sessions.
