Admission Requirements

Bachelor’s Degree

Applicants for admission into the Master of Science in Systems Engineering program must possess a B.Sc. in engineering (EAC), engineering-technology (ETAC), or computing (CAC) from an ABET-accredited program with Calculus I and II and upper-division calculus-based STEM Statistics as a minimum.  B.Sc. in any other related subject is on a case-by-case basis only.  A minimum overall GPA of 3.0 is required from the undergraduate program in which the bachelor’s degree is earned; a 3.3 is preferred.  The program reviews the student portfolio, including bachelor's program, calculus, and statistics grades, the rigor of courses taken (upper division), work experience, professional certifications, and participation in the systems community).

This is conditional upon completion of all required leveling courses.  These leveling courses would primarily meet minimum math, physics, and computer science requirements as established by the Systems Engineering program.

• Preference is given to graduates of hard sciences (Mathematics, Physics, and Chemistry).
• Specific industry or military experience is also considered and evaluated for potential acceptance into the program.
• Any non-engineering candidate accepted into the program is subject to leveling coursework as prescribed by the department.  This includes mathematics, physics, chemistry, and any other engineering coursework deemed critical to the SE credential.

3.00 GPA

A minimum overall GPA of 3.0 is required from the undergraduate program in which the bachelor’s degree is earned; a 3.3 is preferred.  The program reviews the student portfolio, including bachelors program, calculus and statistics grades, rigor of courses taken (upper division), work experience, professional certifications, and participation in the systems community).
