Program Overview

Program Description:

These master's programs are course-only, professionally oriented degree programs that permit a concentration in preparation for engineering practice. Admission requirements to the programs in construction, architectural, geoenvironmental, geotechnical, structural and transportation engineering are the same as those for the M.S. program, with one possible exception. The GRE requirement is waived for applicants who hold a Bachelor of Science in a related field from an ABET accredited university in the United States with a minimum GPA of 3.0/4.0. Candidates in these programs must complete a minimum of 32 credit hours, three of which may be a special project course, CAE 597. Up to 12 credit hours of 400-level undergraduate coursework (except CAE 431 and CAE 432) may be included in the professional master's program with prior adviser approval. No thesis or comprehensive examination is required for successful completion of this degree.
