The Master of Science in Systems Engineering (MSSE) is a research-oriented degree offered through ISR that requires completion of 30 credits (usually 10 courses). The curriculum consists of five core courses that focus on systems engineering processes and methods. Students also select specialty engineering areas and take at least three elective courses. In addition, the student completes a master’s thesis that reflects their systems engineering-related research. The student works under the guidance of a faculty advisor on a topic of mutual interest. Full-time students enrolled in this program are eligible for Graduate Research Assistantships (GRAs), MSSE-specific internships, and possibly Teaching Assistantships (TA). This degree program is particularly well-suited to students who are interested in research and who may be considering the possibility of pursuing a Ph.D. in an engineering-related field. In-state tuition rates for the MSSE program are lower than those for the MEngSE program, which is attractive for Maryland residents. MSSE tuition and fees Estimated total program cost The Graduate Certificate in Engineering in Systems Engineering, offered through Maryland Applied Graduate Engineering , requires completion of four approved courses (12 credits total). The Master of Engineering in Systems Engineering (MEngSE) is a 30-credit professional degree (usually 10 courses) administered by Maryland Applied Graduate Engineering. It does not require either a master’s thesis or scholarly paper. It is particularly well-suited for working professionals who are likely to be taking only one or two courses a semester. Students enrolled in this program are not eligible to be GRAs, TAs, or for MSSE-specific internships. Since the MEngSE tuition is lower than out-of-state MSSE tuition, international and out-of-state students may find this program more attractive. The curriculum consists of five core courses that focus on systems engineering processes and methods. Students also select specialty engineering areas and take at least three elective courses. The core processes and methods courses emphasize a model-based systems engineering approach that includes developing and using SysML models and mathematical models and simulations, and using multi-objective trade-off analysis and optimization techniques. For their specialty area, students may elect to take courses leading to a certificate in aerospace engineering, bioengineering, chemical and biomolecular engineering, civil and environmental engineering, cybersecurity, electrical and computer engineering, environmental engineering, fire protection, materials science and engineering, mechanical engineering, project management, reliability engineering, robotics, software engineering, sustainable energy, or transportation systems. Students interested in this approach should consult the “Courses-Certificate” tab associated with domain of interest. Alternatively, students may define their own specialty focus with the approval of the graduate director. Some possibilities include information technology, network communications and enterprise systems.
