The  degree has two options: 

  • Thesis Option: To receive a degree from this department, you must satisfy the M.S. degree requirements, as specified in the current General Catalog. The additional departmental requirements listed here provide background in the fundamentals of mechanical engineering while allowing you the flexibility to specialize in thermal systems, mechanical systems, materials or microsystems.
  • Non-Thesis/Project Option: The nonthesis option is appropriate for practicing and/or employed engineers who wish to acquire advanced background in chosen subject areas without having the need to pursue rigorous research. The degree can be earned with a part-time program of study.
