Course Overview
The department offers three degree programs of study: Doctor of Philosophy (Ph. D.) , Master of Science in Engineering (M.S. E.) , and Master of Engineering (M. Eng.). Students must be admitted to one of these three degree programs. The student-faculty ratio in the department is kept small to allow for productive working relationships between students and their advisers. The department maintains an atmosphere in which close interaction between students and faculty is the norm, whereby students benefit from the background, experience, and knowledge their advisers have gained in solving important engineering problems.
