The Cornell MSE Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) program is a professionally oriented degree program designed to give students a competitive advantage in the workplace. Since ''everything is made of something,'' Cornell M.Eng. graduates can be found in almost every field related to the physical sciences and engineering. Many students leverage the advanced problem solving skills developed in this program to pursue leadership careers in business, technology management, or governance. Cornell is one of only a few institutions in the U.S. to offer this type of program. Cornell MSE M.Eng. graduates are leaders in entrepreneurship, industry, government, and non-profits who typically join the professional ranks with higher starting salaries and advanced levels of responsibility, compared to those entering with bachelor's degrees. The focus of current advanced materials research at Cornell includes ceramics, complex fluids, metals, polymers and semiconductors in the form of thin films and in the bulk. Electrical, magnetic, mechanical, optical, and structural properties are investigated.<br>Duration: One Academic Year (2 Semesters)
