Return to: Degrees and Programs (A-Z)
The graduate plan in Systems Engineering leads to a master of science (M.S.) degree. The plan is designed to prepare engineers who are knowledgeable in interdisciplinary systems engineering approaches and engineering management and who therefore have the full range of concurrent engineering concepts and skills needed to specify, implement and support complete systems. Such knowledge is particularly important in the evolution of systems that are critical to achieving the mission of an organization and to sustaining the safety of life, health, property and the environment. Such systems are vital to many organizations that are served by UHCL such as: aerospace, biomedical, chemical, energy, manufacturing and others. The plan consists of formal courses, laboratory work and research conducted under the guidance of a faculty adviser. Candidates can tailor their plan of study to emphasize systems engineering analysis or systems engineering management. The web site for the Systems Engineering program is https://www.uhcl.edu/science-engineering/departments/engineering/systems-engineering.

Degree Requirements
Basic Preparation
The candidates should have a bachelor’s degree and be approved by the graduate admissions committee to ensure that the appropriate background knowledge base is present. This background must include, at a minimum: STAT 3334 - Probability and Statistics for Scientists and Engineers Candidates who do not have the required or equivalent preparation are required to take the appropriate courses before enrolling in certain graduate career courses in SENG, SWEN, CSCI and CENG. The committee recommends that candidates take CENG 5131 - Engineering Applications as a preparation elective.
