Emphasis - Aeroacoustics
M.S. in Engineering Science
Description
The M.S. in engineering science is offered in a number of emphasis areas: aeroacoustics, chemical engineering, civil engineering, computational hydroscience, computer science, electrical engineering, electromagnetics, environmental engineering, geology, geological engineering, hydrology, mechanical engineering, material science and engineering, and telecommunications.
Minimum Total Credit Hours: 30
Course Requirements
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. The nonthesis option requires as a minimum 30 hours of graded course work.
Other Academic Requirements
For both the thesis and nonthesis options, a candidate must pass a final oral examination.
