The Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) in Multidisciplinary Engineering (Formerly General Engineering) is perfect for practicing engineers and professionals in related fields who seek a wider base of knowledge. This program is online with synchronous and asynchronous coursework. The M.Eng. in Multidisciplinary Engineering requires students to complete 30 credits of graduate level study. Students in this degree concentration will be required to study a set of core disciplines, as well as a range of elective courses. A graduate of the M.Eng. Multidisciplinary Engineering concentration may be employed in a range of specialized occupations, which may depend on their previous engineering experience and education, as well as their graduate-level concentration options. Upon graduation, students may be more competitive candidates for a wide range of engineering related careers.
The M.Eng. degree emphasizes improvement of essential technical and professional development skills, while a traditional Master of Science degree emphasizes research or a comprehensive understanding of a research area. The M.Eng. program is designed for practicing engineers who prefer to attend classes in the evenings and on a part-time basis. This affords engineers the opportunity for a graduate level education without workplace interruptions.
The program consists of 30 credit hours:
- 9 credits of M.Eng Core Courses
-
- ENGR 5311 - Professional Communication & Information Management – 3 credits
-
- ENGR 5312 - Engineering Project Planning & Management – 3 credits
