What you will study

Students admitted directly from a BS degree program must complete the 27 hours of graded coursework requirements of the MS degree during the first two years of their program. This will prepare them for the PhD Qualifying Process, and will allow them to obtain an MS degree if a thesis or project report is completed and defended, consistent with MS requirements, or to obtain an ME degree once the course work requirement has been satisfied.
