MA/MS in Systems Engineering

The Master of Science in Systems Science and Mathematics is offered by the McKelvey School of Engineering for full-time and part-time students. It prepares people to go on to the doctoral program or to work in industry. Systems science treats a whole set of components as one entity, so each part is designed to fit with the others. Students study how to identify, model, analyze, design, and control systems, whether those are large and complex or highly precise. The field is described as one of the more modern parts of applied mathematics and engineering. Graduates have continued their studies at other universities or taken jobs as data scientists and software engineers at organizations in government and industry.
