ENGR-MS - Engineering (MS)

Courses offered by the School of Engineering are listed under the subject code ENGR on Stanford’s Explore Courses website. Each department listed below also offers courses under the subject codes AA, BIOE, CHEMENG, CEE, CME, CS, EE, MS&E, MATSCI, and ME.

The School of Engineering offers undergraduate programs (see Undergraduate Programs tab above) leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science (BS), programs leading to both BS and Master of Science (MS) degrees, other programs leading to a BS with a Bachelor of Arts (BA) in a field of the humanities or social sciences, dual-degree programs with specific other colleges, and graduate curricula (see Graduate Programs tab above) leading to the degrees of MS, Engineer, and PhD.

The school has nine academic departments: Aeronautics and Astronautics, Bioengineering, Chemical Engineering, Civil and Environmental Engineering, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Management Science and Engineering, Materials Science and Engineering, and Mechanical Engineering. These departments and one interdisciplinary program, the Institute for Computational and Mathematical Engineering, are responsible for graduate curricula, research activities, and the departmental components of the undergraduate curricula.

See Graduate Advising for a statement of university policy on graduate advising.

The MS degree is conferred on graduate students in engineering according to the university regulations stated in the Graduate Degrees and is described in the various department listings. A minimum of 45 units is usually required in MS programs in the School of Engineering. The presentation of a thesis is not a school requirement. Further information is found in departmental listings.
