Systems Engineering at Colorado State University
is about developing integrative solutions to
the world's most complex problems.
You're interested in systems engineering practice, systems security, human-systems integration, and/or MBSE.
We offer four graduate certificates:
Students may apply for – and complete – a certificate, or may apply for both a certificate and a degree program (separate applications, but can be completed in the same semester). This allows students to start with a certificate and continue on to a more advanced degree. Certificates can be completed along with a degree program.
You want to perform research in systems engineering. You plan to continue in academia or industry.
Graduates of our Master of Science program will be capable of designing and managing complex multidisciplinary engineering systems, with a rigorous systems engineering approach.
The research component of the thesis- and project-based M.S. programs equip students with cutting edge skills in specific focus areas, preparing them for future career opportunities.
You have an interest in gaining new skills. You are going into industry or looking to advance your career.
Our Master of Engineering graduates can design and manage complex multidisciplinary engineering systems with a rigorous systems engineering approach.
The applied focus in courses builds skills that can be utilized immediately in current projects and prepares students for future career opportunities.
You're currently working in industry and are interested in pursuing a highly practical degree.
The D.Eng. degree is an applied program that requires students to be working or active in the Systems Engineering field while completing the degree.
All D.Eng. candidates are expected to have a sponsor from within their company/ organization/ practicum site to serve on their advisory committee as an industry member and help coordinate the practicum and dissertation process from within the organization.
You're interested in academia and leading the field through systems engineering research.
Graduates of our Ph.D. program will be capable applying a rigorous systems engineering approach to their research and future career.
Completing a dissertation equips students with cutting edge skills in specific focus areas, preparing them for future career opportunities in academia or industry.
