The Master of Science in Chemical and Biomedical Engineering focuses on chemical and biological process industries, biomedical engineering, and the paper industry. The degree is applicable to students with backgrounds in chemical engineering, chemistry, physics, bioengineering, biomedical engineering, mechanical engineering, and related fields.
The Master of Science in Computer Science prepares students for careers in business, industry, or to pursue doctoral studies. The program offers students the choice of a research-based thesis or non-research tracks. Applicants should have a strong background in computing. This is also an appropriate program for students wishing to do research in bioinformatics.
The Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering prepares students for future engineering practice that requires engineers to master both electrical/computer engineering and computational methods. It is suited for individuals with a background in electrical engineering, computer engineering, or a related discipline. The degree includes courses in computer programming, computer-based modeling, and electrical/computer engineering.
The Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering prepares students for future engineering practice that requires engineers to master both mechanical engineering and computational methods. It is suited for individuals with a background in mechanical engineering or related areas such as physics. The degree includes courses in computer-based modeling, advanced mechanics of materials, control of dynamics systems, and mechanical behavior of materials as well as a limited number of additional courses in science, mathematics, or engineering.
This certificate program equips participants to remain at the forefront of advances in manufacturing technologies and material science. The program develops and enhances skills in analyzing, adopting and effectively utilizing advanced manufacturing methods and the interplay between manufacturing processes and material properties. Courses can be selected to suit areas of interest and/or job requirements. Coursework includes additive manufacturing, mechanical property characterization, wear analysis, nano-materials, statistical process control, etc. Selection of equipment and creation of a testing program to capture specific service conditions is undertaken. Practicum courses can be taken for hands-on experiences in topics such as materials testing, process instrumentation, and automation.
