Explore our program offerings by selecting your desired degree level:
Each of our master's program ranges 30-36 credit hours, with part-time and full-time courseload options that take students on average 2-3 years for completion. From there, students can directly enter industry or continue building research experience through a doctoral program.
Doctoral students comprise the backbone of research conducted at SEAS. Through grant funding and mentorships from faculty, doctoral students can expect to take 4-6 years to complete the program.
Ideal for working professionals or those who simply want to acquire additional skills beyond their undergraduate education, each certificate is comprised of 4-6 courses offered in the evening. Upon successful completion of a certificate, credits may be transferred to a Master's program.
