The MSTech program with a concentration in management of technology is open to individuals with a technical undergraduate degree who wish to develop their leadership and management skills to complement their technical expertise. The curriculum is tailored to the needs of the student, ensuring each student obtains basic leadership and management skills.

In the MS program in engineering, students develop applied analytical expertise across disciplinary boundaries, with direct applications of advanced design principles to system design, management and control.

The student's expertise, developed through the core curriculum, is reinforced with the flexibility of focus area options that include alternative energy, mechanical engineering and manufacturing engineering.

The culminating experience options are also flexible, allowing students to tailor the program to support their unique career goals while also becoming problem-solvers who create and shape the future.

The ABET-accredited BSE program in engineering prepares graduates to collaborate across disciplines to design and build solutions to real-world problems. In the program, students apply fundamental engineering knowledge and design thinking to real projects every semester.

Students in the mechanical engineering systems concentration of the Bachelor of Science in engineering build a broad engineering foundation to which they add the skills and knowledge necessary to contribute mechanical subject matter expertise in transdisciplinary engineering teams. This expertise includes theory and application of materials, machine design, thermal fluid systems, and energy and power from a systems perspective. The mechanical systems curriculum also provides significant hands-on experience designing and implementing mechanical systems to meet the needs of users.

The BA program in business with a concentration in human resources involves both theoretical and applied concepts with a focus on practical and applied aspects of human resources. This degree is applicable to any business or governmental organization as all have a need to manage their personnel services.

The MS program in information technology teaches advanced technology skills to prepare students for careers in industry, education or government.

Students gain the ability to conceptualize, organize and realize information technology projects that meet the needs of users within an organizational or societal context. Students select coursework that encompasses core technologies in one of three focus areas: computer architecture and information security, information systems management and development, and enterprise computing.

The MS program in user experience combines topics in web, human factors, visual displays and technical communication to make products, systems and services useful, usable and desirable.

Students learn how to research user needs, identify criteria for successful products and services, prototype those products and services, and refine them through usability testing and other user-centered evaluation methods. User experience skills are increasingly valued by industry yet are not typically covered in depth in traditional engineering or technical communication programs.

The BA in business with a concentration in communication is an innovative, transdisciplinary program that prepares students for positions in a variety of professions in which business and communication play an important role in ensuring success.

Students complete rigorous courses within the communication concentration in addition to the skill and core courses required of all W. P. Carey School of Business majors.

Graduates have specific knowledge of business practices and the capacity to effectively communicate complex business information

The BS degree program in human systems engineering with a concentration in user experience combines topics in psychology, the web, human factors, visual displays and technical communications to make products and services useful, usable and desirable.

Students learn how to research customer needs, identify criteria for successful products and services, prototype those products and services, and refine them through usability testing and other user-centered methods.

The BS program in aeronautical management technology with a concentration in air traffic management provides a technical foundation in the air traffic control procedures used by air traffic controllers in control towers and radar facilities.

Students gain a strong background in aircraft operations, management skills and business principles through coursework specific to air traffic control and aviation. As part of the degree program, students are required to take courses that will qualify them to earn their airline dispatcher certificate.

This is an intensive program of classroom study and laboratory practice using state-of-the-art air traffic control simulators to enhance and reinforce classroom study. Students receive training in the methodologies and technologies that are currently being developed for the next generation of air traffic control systems. Students develop the skills of analytical thinking, clear and concise communication, problem-solving, and teamwork.

The Aviation Accreditation Board International accredits this program and the Federal Aviation Administration certifies flight and ground instruction.

Counseling and applied psychological science is a specialty in promoting psychological well-being. Counselors and applied psychologists provide the tools and resources necessary for individuals, families and organizations to cope with everyday problems.

The BS program in counseling and applied psychological science provides foundational training in counseling theories, addictions, trauma, lifespan development, group counseling and professional ethics. A unique aspect of the program is its attention to cultural diversity, which focuses on age, gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion and socioeconomic status.
