ISE_MS - Industrial and Systems Engineering (M.S.)

Program Information

The Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering offers the Master of Engineering degree, the Master of Science degree, the Engineer degree, and the Doctor of Philosophy degree. Complete descriptions of the minimum requirements for the M.E., M.S., Engineer, and Ph.D. degrees are provided in the Graduate Degrees section of this catalog.

Master of Science (M.S.) Program

Admission to the Master of Science program is open to students with an undergraduate degree in engineering, mathematics, statistics, computer science, physics, quantitative management, or similar field. The M.S. degree does not require a thesis, although a student interested in pursuing research or possibly continuing their education beyond a master’s degree is encouraged to write one.

Master of Engineering (M.E.) Program

Students seeking admission to the Master of Engineering program must have a bachelor’s degree from an ABET-accredited curriculum or have taken sufficient articulation coursework to meet the minimum requirements specified by ABET. The M.E. degree does not require a thesis and is generally considered a terminal degree.

Ph.D. Program

The doctoral program in Industrial and Systems Engineering covers the areas of data analytics, health systems engineering, human-systems engineering, operations research (including deterministic and stochastic processes), risk management and financial engineering, and supply chain and logistics systems. Application areas include energy systems, financial engineering, healthcare, manufacturing systems, security systems, supply chain management, and transportation systems.
