MASTER OF SCIENCE IN MANUFACTURING ENGINEERING
REQUIREMENTS FOR THE MASTER OF SCIENCE
The degree program requires 36 units, typically made up of 11 courses and a 3-unit master’s report, or 10 courses and a 6-unit master’s report. Units may be granted for up to three relevant graduate level courses (9 units) completed elsewhere with a grade of B or better. Issues relating to the transfer of courses are addressed in the Mechanical Engineering Program section of this catalog.
Prerequisite Courses (or equivalent knowledge)
Students must be computer literate and have knowledge of engineering economy and probability and statistics. If the prospective student lacks the relevant knowledge, the requirement may be satisfied by the following courses:
- Probability and Statistics (MA 651 or equivalent)
- Computer Literacy. Up to 6 credits of graduate courses in this category of prerequisite knowledge can be counted for degree credit as electives.
Students are encouraged to organize their electives into “concentrations.” Concentrations are designed to suit the student’s career needs and, for those who are working, the needs of the firm.
