Detailed information concerning admissions, degree and course requirements as well as course descriptions can be found the Graduate Catalog.

Many engineers with an ISE M.S. degree have their undergraduate degree in a different field of engineering.  Thus, admission is open to engineers with a undergraduate degree in any field of engineering - Industrial and Systems, Mechanical, Electrical, Computer, Civil, etc.  No make-up courses are required.  Applicants with an engineering technology, computer science, mathematics or science degree will be considered for admission, but may be required to take additional preparatory courses in engineering.

Many engineers working full-time enroll in the ISE M.S. program on a part-time basis since all courses are offered in the evening.  Students may enter the program at any time of the year and begin their classes in either September, January or May due to the flexible nature of the course requirements.
