M. Eng. Curriculum
Each student must complete at least 30 credits, of which at least 18 must be at the graduate level (500- level). Students must follow the approved program of study provided in one of the four emphasis areas, or receive approval to substitute courses on the course list. A limited number of courses may be substituted for those listed in the approved programs. Students must provide valid justification for all proposed changes (such as lack of availability, previous successful completion of a similar course, greater benefit to a student's degree program, etc.).
As early as possible during the first semester of study, a student should consult with his/her advisor and submit the Master of Engineering Program Approval form, which lists the courses that are expected to make up a student's degree program.
