The Master of Science Programs - The Master of Science professional degree programs at COE are uniquely interdisciplinary and focused in growth fields. The programs are intended for working engineers or recent engineering graduates who seek career advancement as technical professionals, business managers or industry leaders.

The pedagogy for the five component master¹s programs ­ Energy Systems, Information systems, Computer Systems Engineering, Telecommunication Systems Management, Sustainable Building Systems, and Engineering Management,  ­ is geared to the real-world context of the fields in which students have already begun technical preparation and in which they wish to lead.

Students will develop skills to be used systemically, for example, in financial decision making, in complex project management, in the use of energy and materials in a sustainable manner, and in the improvement real-world business operations. A signature aspect of the master¹s programs is the opportunity students will have to participate in cooperative education (co-op), which effectively help them integrate classwork with real-life experience and potentially re-set career goals.
