Systems Engineering Distance Learning Program

Do you have a hunger to learn? Don't have time to go back to school full-time to earn your master's degree? We can help.

Cornell University is leaping into the world of online education. The College of Engineering, the preeminent engineering school in the Ivy League, is offering a Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) in Systems Engineering via distance learning. This program is ideal for you if you’ve entered the workforce and want to earn your master’s without taking a break in your employment.

As more and more engineers pursue master's level education, the demand for master's programs is increasing and will rise dramatically in the coming years. Many of those prospective master's degree students are engineers who already have professional jobs, and who want to pursue a professional master's program without leaving their employment. For these mature students, part-time study - often based on distance learning - is a necessity and that's where we come in.

Systems engineering is a valuable discipline for master's level study because many engineers from various undergraduate disciplines find that they are deeply involved in designing and implementing complex systems. Master's level study in this area can support their career goals and give them tools for continued improvement of professional skills.
