Summary: The Transportation Infrastructure and Systems Engineering program is based on two ideas. First, engineers are responsible for life-cycle of the designed system. Second, engineers must be capable of optimizing the total system performance of large-scale public work projects, including their social and environmental impacts, in a way that addresses the critical issues of infrastructure behavior, deterioration science, and structural rehabilitation. As a result, the infrastructure program maintains pedagogical and practical links to Environmental Engineering and Systems Engineering.

Bradley Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
Master of Science or Master of Engineering
Summary: The Master of Science (M.S.) degree, which requires a thesis, and the Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) degree, which requires a project and report, are the two Master's degree programs offered in Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering. The M.S. and M.Eng. degree programs are designed to meet the individual needs of graduate students. Degree preference varies among the employers. Some prefer thesis students (particularly for the demonstration of research and writing skills) while others seek the broad-based knowledge which results from more course work.

Summary: Systems Engineering is an interdisciplinary field that integrates many different engineering specialties into a total engineering effort to ensure an efficient and effective product (system) output. Systems engineering analyzes the operational needs of industrial, business and government enterprises and by applying scientific and engineering technology develops the integrated hardware and software required to meet those needs. A systems engineer is one who can apply the team approach to the process of bringing systems into being and can define their various components, identify and integrate the engineering disciplines needed to develop them and understand the system's operational and maintenance requirements for the entire consumer-use period.
