MCE Requirements
You are required to obtain 30 credits in an approved plan of graduate
work. Each semester-long course is typically three credits. Most students
meet the requirements by taking ten courses. However, there is a project
option that replaces one course with a three-credit individual project
mutually agreed to by you and a faculty member. You also are required
to develop an individualized plan of graduate work with your faculty
advisor. The degree must be completed within six years. For distance
education students, there is no requirement to be in residence at the
University, and all requirements for the degree can be met with available
distance education course offerings and the optional project. Applicants
without a prior engineering degree in a related field typically must
make up course work deficiencies (see Admission
Requirements).
