1. A baccalaureate degree in Engineering from an ABET accredited institution. Degrees in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Computer Science and other hard science fields may be accepted on an individual basis to meet this requirement. In such cases, additional course work in engineering may be required as part of the program.

 

2. A minimum combined score of 1,000 for the verbal and quantitative portions of the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) or a minimum grade point average of 3.0 out of a possible 4.0 for all undergraduate work taken during the last two years of the applicant's studies. The GRE score must be no older than five years at the time of application to the program. Taking the GRE is still required.

 

3. At least two years of work experience in engineering or management is required to provide a basis for the graduate studies in Engineering Management. Engineering co-op or internship work experience may count if the work is engineering related. Otherwise, two semesters of internship may be required. A thesis option is also available.

 

4. A letter of recommendation from your current supervisor or manager. If you are not currently employed, a recommendation from your previous employer will do.

 

5. In exceptional cases where the applicant does not meet one of the above entrance requirements, a student may enter the program as a special student. Taking courses as a non-degree seeking student will not guarantee admission into the program. No more than 12 credit hours will be transferred from non-degree seeking status into the degree-seeking program. Providing that the other entrance requirements have then been met with high quality, the Graduate Review Committee will provide the applicant with a list of the courses and performance criteria required for formal admission to the program.

 

6. International students are required to have a minimum score of 550 on the TOEFL test.
