¾«Æ·SMÔÚÏßӰƬ

An undergraduate degree in engineering, science, or a technical field (including areas such as physics, applied mathematics, and computer science). If you do not have an undergraduate degree in engineering or a technical field, then you may be admitted to the degree based on work experience or other relevant career goals.

A cumulative GPA of a 3.0 (from all undergrad transcripts) from a regionally accredited institution. If your undergrad GPA is below a 3.0, graduate coursework may satisfy this requirement. If you are an international applicant, once you apply the International Admissions Office will determine the equivalency of your GPA on the 4.0 scale. You are welcome to use an outside entity to assess your GPA to get a rough estimate, but the University will conduct their own evaluation. International students must have a 3.0 GPA (undergraduate or graduate degree) since we cannot provisionally admit international students.

If you're a domestic applicant and your GPA is below a 3.0, there are a few options:

• Applicants who submit GRE scores are required to score in the median to high range (mid-150 range in each section or higher). ¾«Æ·SMÔÚÏßӰƬ’s GRE institution code is 4841. You do not need to supply a department code. Our program does not accept the GMAT in lieu of the GRE.
• Start as a non-degree seeking student to help boost your GPA.
• Five or more years of relevant work experience may substitute for a lower GPA.

While work experience is not required, most students have some experience and bring a wealth of practical knowledge, insight and expertise to the classroom, enriching the learning experience for all.  Classes benefit from students with a diverse set of experiences and a common desire to learn and excel in their careers.
