Master of Science in Engineering - Bioengineering Innovation and Design

at Shorelight Group - Johns Hopkins University USA

The Systems Engineering program offers two degree distinctions—a Master of Science in Engineering (MSE) and a Master of Science (MS). There is no difference in the curriculum for the MSE and MS programs. Your undergraduate degree determines which degree you will earn.  In order to be admitted into the MSE program, you need a Bachelor of Science degree issued by a program accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of ABET.  If you do not meet this requirement (or you did not complete the prerequisites that met all of the EAC of ABET-accreditation requirements for attainment of student outcomes and for sufficient math, science, and engineering design at the Bachelor of Science level), you will earn a regionally accredited MS degree.

The Master of Arts (MA) in Geography and Environmental Engineering is housed in the Whiting School of Engineering (WSE) on the Homewood campus. Students in this program have the unique opportunity to take classes on both the WSE Homewood and JHSPH East Baltimore campuses in order to complete their degree requirements.

The MA in Geography and Environmental Engineering is a degree program open to students with undergraduate degrees in social sciences or the humanities. Three semesters of coursework are typically required to complete the degree and MA students have the option to complete an independent research project, submitted as a formal essay. Students can focus on one of the Department’s areas of interest or construct their own program that complements and expands their undergraduate experience.

Each individual’s program of study is planned by the student in consultation with department faculty and must be approved by the faculty adviser.

The MA degree is open to students with undergraduate degrees in social sciences or the humanities.

Our Master’s programs combine fundamental training with real-world experience. Thus, the programs educate leaders for tomorrow, providing the tools and perspectives for a lifetime of learning, opportunities, and professional advancement. Build your knowledge base with coursework in systems, mechanics, structures, computational methods, and uncertainty quantification. Apply that knowledge in our externship program while you network with professional engineers and gain valuable experience with your dream employer.

CaSE currently offers two MSE degree options:

• Civil Engineering –  focus on mechanics of materials, probabilistic methods, fire engineering, earthquake engineering, infrastructure design for resilience
• Systems Engineering – focus on network modeling, mathematical modeling, optimization, analysis of complex infrastructure systems, public health, urban resilience

Typically limited financial support is available for M.S.E. students. Funding decisions will be made on an individual basis by the Department of Civil and Systems Engineering and will be communicated during the admissions process.

The Master of Science in Geography and Environmental Engineering (MS) is housed in the Whiting School of Engineering (WSE) on the Homewood campus. Students in this Program have the unique opportunity to take classes on both the WSE Homewood and JHSPH East Baltimore campuses in order to complete their degree requirements.

The flagship educational experience offered by Johns Hopkins University in the area of information security and assurance is represented by the Master of Science in Security Informatics (M.S.S.I.) degree. A wide range of courses is available in support of this unique and innovative graduate program.

The M.S.S.I. is a full-time day program offered on the Homewood Campus in North Baltimore. Most students complete the program in three full-time semesters though some graduate students may finish their degree part-time after completing the required two consecutive semesters of residency as a full-time student.

Students may elect to work toward the master of science in engineering (M.S.E.) degree in applied mathematics and statistics. All master’s degrees in the Department of Applied Mathematics and Statistics ordinarily require a minimum of two semesters of registration as a full-time resident graduate student.

The department offers a variety of options to earn the master's degree, known as the Masters of Science and Engineering degree in Mechanical Engineering.

Essay Option
Students writing an essay will successfully complete a coordinated sequence of eight courses and graduate research, and submit a master’s essay (sometimes known as a “thesis”). The degree typically requires three to four semesters of study.

There are two options to complete the essay:

• Conduct Laboratory Research
  • Work with world-renowned engineering professors by conducting original research to produce an essay worthy of publication.
  • Learn more about the Research option here!
• Work in a Cooperative Educational Environment (Co-Op)
  • To broaden the practical training for master’s students, the Institute for Nanobiotechnology (INBT) teams with companies to provide an immersive master’s industry “co-op” experience in a professional working environment. Goals and objectives are developed for the student in conjunction with faculty and INBT academic advisors, which will be used to complete the master’s essay.

As one of the oldest and broadest fields of engineering, the mechanical engineering master’s programs offer you incredible flexibility to pursue your interests while the part-time nature of the program allows you to do so at your own pace.

Instructors are executive-level mechanical engineers who deepen your understanding of the fundamentals and introduce you to modern technologies and theories. Learn to use advanced analysis techniques, translate mechanical engineering problems into a quantitative form, and analyze experiments. You also have the option to take elective courses from other Engineering for Professionals programs—giving you the control to gain the precise knowledge you seek.

Upon graduation, you will:

• Master advanced techniques of analysis and modern tools.
• Translate practical mechanical engineering problems into a quantitative form amenable to an analytical or numerical solution, or to experimental investigation.
• Analyze, interpret, and apply the information obtained by experiment, computation, or analysis, or available in the literature.
• Choose a specialization that best fits your area of interest.
• Apply knowledge, facts, and theories immediately in your work outside the classroom.

The Data Science Master’s degree at the Johns Hopkins University will provide the training in applied mathematics, statistics and computer science to serve as the basis for an understanding, and appreciation, of existing data science tools.  Our program aims to produce the next generation of leaders in data science by emphasizing mastery of the skills needed to translate real-world data-driven problems in mathematical ones, and then solving these problems by using a diverse collection of scientific tools

The final Capstone Experience in Data Science (EN.553.806) is a research-oriented project which must be approved by the research supervisor, academic advisor and the Internal Oversight Committee.  The Capstone Experience can be taken in multiple semesters, but the total number of credits required for successful completion is six (6). The goal of the final course and written paper is to allow the student to apply data analysis techniques learned in the program, and possibly to extend those ideas to more general settings or to new application areas.  Lastly, the paper will be summarized in a poster session organized at the end of each semester.

The Master of Science in Engineering (M.S.E.) is a residential in-person program offered by the Department of Computer Science. Most students complete the program in three full-time semesters. Two semesters of residence as a full-time graduate student are required. Those interested in part-time/remote (nonresidential) study should refer to the Engineering for Professionals Program at ep.jhu.edu.

Entering students are expected to have completed a program of study equivalent to that required by the B.S. in computer science. Applicants from other disciplines are expected to have coursework (or equivalent experience) in intermediate programming (C++ and Java), data structures, computer system fundamentals, and mathematical foundations for computer science. Upon admission to the Master of Science in Engineering program, a student is assigned a graduate advisor from the Department of Computer Science who must approve the courses to be applied to the M.S.E. degree.
