A student must complete the requirements for an emphasis area. For most emphasis areas, the degree may be completed as either a thesis option (30-hour program, to include 6 hours of thesis) or nonthesis option (30- hour program, to include a minimum of 3 hours of a design-oriented project course).

Emphasis - Aeroacoustics

Description

A degree of M.S. in engineering science with emphasis in aeroacoustics prepares a student with advanced technical knowledge and communication skills for pursuing a career in industry, engineering research and development, public service, or for doctoral work.

Course Requirements

For the emphasis in aeroacoustics, thesis and nonthesis options are available. Both options require as a minimum 30 semester hours of graduate credit (to include 6 hours of math-related courses) in which the student’s adviser must approve all course selections. Under the thesis option, the minimum of 30 graduate credits shall consist of 24 hours of graded course work and 6 thesis hours.
