Master’s

Master’s degrees

With nearly 40 Master’s degree programs, we offer a multitude of opportunities for you to specialize, advance, lead, and make an impact in your chosen field.

Every program is different, but Master of Science (MS) and Master of Science in Engineering (MSE) degrees are generally understood to be more research-based degrees that may or may not be part of your path to a PhD. Master of Engineering (MEng) degrees are sometimes referred to as professional degrees.

Sequential Undergraduate/Graduate Studies (SUGS)

This sequential undergrad-graduate degree program (sometimes referred to as a 4+1 or combined BS/MS degree) allows you to use your credits and college experience efficiently.

SUGS does not require dual enrollment, but getting on a SUGS track does require some deliberate actions. Check out our SUGS Q&A to hear what students have to say about the program, or reach out to your department’s SUGS coordinator for more details.

Dual & joint masters degrees

One of the advantages of studying at a university with leaders across so many disciplines is the opportunity it gives you to broaden your expertise with a dual or joint degree.
