Master of Science in Mechatronic Systems Engineering (MS ENMT)
Type:
GraduateDegree:
M.S.Description:
The master of science in mechatronics system engineering (MS-ENMT) is designed to meet the needs of industry and research laboratories for engineers with multidisciplinary experience and an ability to integrate systems of components and people from multiple engineering disciplines. Mechatronics involves the integration of mechanical, electrical and computer engineering to design complex systems that perform real-world tasks. System engineering likewise incorporates a focus on integration, while also considering project management, redundant systems, operations, design optimization and reliability.
This degree provides graduates with the technical understanding and skill sets required to lead integrated projects through interfacing with engineers and technicians in other disciplines. The program includes a broad set of common course requirements along with a selection of appropriate technical electives to give depth in the student’s area of interest.
Total Credit Hours:
45qrt. hrs.Other Requirements:
A bachelor’s degree in an engineering discipline from an accredited engineering program is required for admission to the program. It is expected that students will have completed the undergraduate degree in a traditional engineering discipline, but may need to take several prerequisite courses in other mechatronics areas. While some of these courses may be applied to the 45 hours required for the degree, it is likely that some may not. All candidates must also pass a standardized competency exam. The competency exam is administered upon acceptance to the program or after the completion of the Mechatronics I course. The purpose of the exam is to certify that candidates meet the prerequisite level required for graduate course work in all (computer, electrical and mechanical engineering) areas. Students without basic prerequisites may be required to achieve the necessary background as provisional candidates before being admitted as regular students. Upon satisfactory completion of the stated provisional requirements, the student’s status will be changed from provisional to regular status.
