> Master of Science (MS)
The undesignated master's degree (M.S.) enables you to pursue a program of highly interdisciplinary course work. For the undesignated degree, the major area is a coherent field of interest in the Woodruff School, but courses taken in the major area need not all have ME designations. Examples of major areas are acoustics and dynamics, bioengineering, materials science, MEMS, and thermal sciences. The list of major areas is limited only by the current interests of the faculty in the Woodruff School. The requirement for a major area is motivated by the need to have some coherent area of special expertise. ME 6753, ME 6789, and ME 6799 cannot be used to meet this requirement.

Only courses from the School of Mathematics fulfill the mathematics requirement. ME xxxx credits do not include special problem credits (ME 89xx). In addition, any course in which you receive a grade of D or F, any course taken for a nonletter grade basis (except thesis, transfer credit, or advanced standing), or any course required for the B.S.M.E. do not meet these course requirements.
