The Commonwealth Graduate Engineering Program is a distance learning graduate program offering qualified individuals the opportunity to earn a master's degree part time through on-site and interactive videoconferencing classes. CGEP is a consortium of approximately 12 receive sites and four other universities across Virginia:
Virginia Tech Program Offerings
- Civil and Environmental Engineering
- Electrical and Computer Engineering
- Industrial and Systems Engineering
Applying to the Virginia Tech graduate school under the Commonwealth Campus status enables students to take 12 semester hours before formal acceptance into a master's degree program. Each University offers specific master's degrees with little overlap. This program offers an excellent opportunity for working engineers to update skills or learn about a new technology.
Mission
