The Master of Engineering in Systems Engineering is an interdisciplinary degree, and involves the identification, modeling, analysis, architecture, integration, and management of complex systems and processes.
The course of study offers experience in
- System analysis and modeling
- MATLAB simulations
- Project and Program amangement
- Quality improvement initiatives
- Creativity and problem solving
Your fellow students usually have undergraduate degrees in engineering, computer science, physics, mathematics, and IST. Most are already professional engineers, and are employed at corporations including Lockheed Martin, NAVSEA, Boeing, Unisys, and Alloy Surfaces.
During your program you’ll take evening courses in 7 and 14-week formats. These courses are offered both at the Penn State Great Valley campus in Malvern and at the Philadelphia Navy Yard. You can expect to complete your degree in 2 – 3 years.
The degree consists of 36 credits (12 courses). A capstone experience includes writing an engineering professional paper or attending the Engineering Research Institute.
Our systems engineering graduates have advanced in their careers to become lead engineers, principal engineers, engineering managers, and project managers.
