Aerospace Engineering
M.S. and Ph.D.
The Department of Aerospace Engineering offers graduate programs leading to the Master of Science (thesis and non-thesis option) and Doctor of Philosophy degrees. Major areas of study include fluid dynamics, structural mechanics, flight mechanics and controls, flight test engineering, and design optimization. The Raspet Flight Research Laboratory, a unique university facility for graduate aeronautical teaching and research, is operated as an integral part of the department. Other department facilities consist of: a low speed wind tunnel, a water tunnel, a blow-down supersonic wind tunnel, and a universal testing machine laboratory. Members of the faculty provide primary leadership in computational simulation and numerical grid generation.
Civil Engineering
M.S. and Ph.D.
The Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering offers graduate programs leading to the Master of Science (thesis and non-thesis option) and Doctor of Philosophy degrees. Major areas of study include: structures, geotechnical, water resources, transportation, construction materials, and environmental engineering. Research laboratories include: capabilities in the areas of structures and wind analysis, geotechnical engineering, water quality and environmental engineering, surveying, transportation, and construction materials.
Computational Engineering
M.S. and Ph.D.
The Bagley College of Engineering Online welcomes computational engineering to the distance program.
Computational engineering is an interdisciplinary curriculum with both Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy Degrees available. Programs of study are personalized to the individual student.
Many classes in computational engineering are taken through the departments of Aerospace, Mechanical Engineering, Computer Science, Math, and others. The online program is targeted to engineers and scientists working in the nation’s major national laboratories, such as the Department of Defense, NASA and the Department of Energy where high-performance computing assets are readily available.

- ergonomics/human factors.
Research laboratories include facilities in Human Systems Engineering, Logistics and Transportation Engineering, Management Systems Engineering, and Optimization and Data Informatics.
Master of Engineering
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, student interests, educational background, work experience, and needs.
The primary objective of this inter-disciplinary program is to allow professional engineers 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.
The Master of Engineering program at Mississippi State University is 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.
Mechanical Engineering
M.S. and Ph.D.
The Department of Mechanical Engineering offers graduate programs leading to the Master of Science (thesis and non-thesis option) in Mechanical Engineering. There is also a doctoral program for Mechanical Engineering. Every graduate student becomes involved in sponsored research projects. These topics range from sustainable and renewable energy systems, multi-scale modeling, vibrations and more.
