The Environmental Engineering Program offers two graduate degrees, Master of Science (M.S.) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.). The M.S. degree is awarded in Environmental Engineering and may be either research-based, Plan A, or coursework-based, Plan B. This includes advanced courses in basic scientific understanding, engineering design skills, and modeling of environmental processes. Campus: Storrs Campus.
Duration: 30 credits | Study mode: full-time | Location: Storrs, CT, United States
A total of 30 credits are required for graduation, with a minimum of 21 credits of coursework in Environmental Engineering or related area, including ENVE 5310 and 5320, and a minimum of nine credits of GRAD 5950 Master's Thesis Research. A student may enroll in GRAD 5950 Master's Thesis Research credits at any time during the M.S. degree and it is their responsibility to coordinate with their research advisor and secondarily, with their research committee, on the research plan and requirements for graduation.
Plan A students often pursue further Ph.D. studies or careers in research and development in government and private institutes. The Ph.D. in Environmental Engineering prepares students for research and teaching careers in environmental engineering, including industry, higher education, private foundations, and state, local, or federal government agencies.
Graduate School (university-wide): bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited institution (or equivalent); cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher for the degree, or equivalent GPA tests on recent coursework; international applicants meet equivalent standards with official transcripts; individual programmes set additional application requirements and a competitive record is needed.
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 applications are submitted online to The Graduate School; the application fee is $75 (non-refundable, paid by credit card). Some programmes set earlier application deadlines.
