The Master of Science in Engineering (MSE) is designed to meet the needs of motivated engineers seeking to advance their careers. The following concentrations are currently offered:

• Computer Engineering
• Electrical Engineering
• Systems Engineering

---

Program Delivery:

• The MSE program is delivered primarily through on-campus courses; however, the opportunity to take some courses on-line through the West Lafayette campus of Purdue University does exists.  Students are strongly encouraged to discuss this option with their advisor beforehand.  In order to meet the needs of both our full-time students and working adults, most of the graduate level courses are offered in late afternoon or evenings.

Declaring this Major:

Applicants to the MSE program should have ideally graduated from an approved, accredited engineering program with a Bachelor of Science degree in their selected area of specialization with a minimum undergraduate GPA of 3.0.

Graduates with a Bachelor of Science degree in the physical sciences, computer science, mathematics or technology will also be considered for admission.

Formal admission to the MSE program requires a Bachelor of Science degree as well as:

• Completion of the engineering mathematics sequence which includes calculus, multivariate calculus, linear algebra, and differential equations
• Completion of at least two semesters of calculus-based physics
• Completion of all undergraduate engineering courses that are the prerequisites to the graduate courses on the student’s Plan of Study (GS-Form 6)

These requirements are in addition to the standard admission requirements of the Purdue Graduate School.

Application Process:

• Students interested in pursuing a Master of Science in Engineering need to apply through the Purdue University Graduate Application Website at:  https://www.purdue.edu/gradschool/admissions/how-to-apply/index.html.
