Graduate Programs

The College of Engineering and Technology offers two distinct graduate-level programs: a Master of Science in Engineering Technology and a Master of Construction Management. Both programs are designed to support career advancement for those working in engineering careers or large-scale construction management projects. The curriculum for each program integrates coursework and research with applied-learning projects either on-the-job for working professionals or in partnership with one of the college's multiple private industry partners.

The programs are designed with sufficient flexibility to permit students to select a combination of courses that meet their particular career or research goals.
