Why choose the MSE program at GVSU?

The US job market currently employs 1.6 million engineers. 近年来,工程类工作的平均增长率为7%. 拥有硕士学位的工程师的工资中位数比只有学士学位的工程师高15 - 20%. 除了职业生涯中收入潜力的显著增加, 拥有硕士学位的工程师有更大的博天堂官方网页机会.

GVSU的工程硕士(MSE)学位培养具有实践能力的工程师, hands-on, 研究生教育根植于强大的理论基础,我们的行业合作伙伴依赖于满足他们不断变化的需求.

我们的研究生课程是灵活的,旨在加深学生的专业知识-为两者提供机会, the student seeking a more traditional, full-time research-based experience, and the working professional choosing to attend part-time. 

MSE计划准备学生成为他们的专业技术领导者以及博士课程的有力候选人. 我们的毕业生继续在像通用电气这样的跨国公司工作, Stryker, and Ford, 以及像Dornerworks和Twisthink这样的小型本地公司. 越来越多的毕业生也在宾夕法尼亚州立大学等著名大学攻读博士学位, Northwestern, and University of Michigan.

MSE Program Overview

MSE要求至少33个学分的研究生课程,包括重点课程, electives, and a culminating experience. 全日制学生(9个研究生学分)通常在4个学期内完成他们的研究生课程. 

每个学生都与GPD一起计划适合他们需要的课程. For students with a non-engineering undergraduate degree, 本课程计划将包括本科必修课程,以填补任何知识空白.

我们的大部分课程都在晚上提供,为工作的专业人士提供方便的安排.

MSE学生可以选择专攻以下领域:

  1. Biomedical Engineering (BME)
  2. Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE)
  3. Manufacturing and Design Engineering (MDE)
  4. Mechanical Engineering (ME)
