The Master of Engineering (M Eng) is a professional degree designed for students seeking a non-specific discipline degree in engineering who do not normally have access to traditional degree granting programs at the graduate level.  No “core” courses are required as part of the M Eng degree program; each individual program of study will be developed from a list of available courses.

The primary objective of this inter-disciplinary program is to allow professional engineers in the southeastern U.S. to pursue a flexible graduate degree in a web-based format. The program will uphold the same rigorous academic requirements as programs offered on the Mississippi State University Campus.

Cost: $411.25/hour ($286.25/ tuition per hour + $125/distance fee per hour)
Cost is the same for in-state or out-of-state residents

Unique in the State of Mississippi
Students enrolled in this program may use courses to satisfy continuing education hours for the Mississippi Engineering Board of Registration as well as requirements for Licensed Professional Engineers in other states.

Mississippi State University has an approved Honor Code that
applies to all students. The code is as follows:

"As a Mississippi State University student I will conduct myself
with honor and integrity at all times. I will not lie, cheat,
or steal, nor will I accept the actions of those who do."

Upon accepting admission to Mississippi State University, a student
immediately assumes a commitment to uphold the Honor Code, to
accept responsibility for learning, and to follow the philosophy
and rules of the Honor Code. Students will be required to state
their commitment on examinations, research papers, and other
academic work. Ignorance of the rules does not exclude any member
of the MSU community from the requirements or the processes of the
Honor Code. For additional information please visit:
