工程学理学硕士课程是一种灵活的课程，旨在满足众多学生的需求。该计划可以成为进一步研究和追求高级研究（例如，攻读博士学位）的踏脚石。或者该程序可以通过更多的技术知识和知识成熟度为职业发展提供途径。在主要顾问的帮助和批准下，该学生可以从整个工程与应用科学学院（CEAS）以及适当的情况下，从其他学校和学院中选择广泛的课程。
Engineering MS: Engineering Mechanics<br>MS<br>Engineering Mechanics is a concentration within the college-wide Master of Science (MS) program where students use the application of mechanics to solve real-world problems involving common engineering elements. The MS in engineering mechanics provides a good foundation to engineering analysis and is useful to non-engineering majors interested in a multi-disciplinary engineering background with career prospects in a wide variety of industries including aerospace, automotive, mining, defense and biomedical among others. Engineering mechanics strives to enhance the engineer's understanding to interpret behaviors of structures using experiments and computer analyses. <br><br>Some of the areas that are involved in engineering mechanics include computer analysis using the finite element techniques, experimental stress analysis, advanced composites behavior, computational mechanics, dynamics, nonlinear behavior, plasticity, micromechanics and macro-mechanical behavior of composites, damage and fracture mechanics, optimization and probabilistic static and dynamic analysis.<br><br>The Master of Science in Engineering program is a flexible program designed to meet the needs of a wide variety of students. The program can be a stepping-stone on the way to further studies and the pursuit of advanced research, such as can be obtained by pursuing the PhD. Or the program can provide a pathway to professional advancement through greater technical knowledge and intellectual maturity. The student, with the help and approval of a major advisor, can choose from a wide range of courses from throughout the College of Engineering and Applied Science (CEAS), and where appropriate, from other schools and colleges.
