Master of Science Degree in Applied Manufacturing Engineering

Program Admission Requirements


Tier 1:  Applicants with a 3.0 GPA and a 4-year degree from a SACS-accredited (or equivalent) institution with a major in engineering, engineering technology, physics, chemistry, biology, mathematics or computer science (not information technology) are granted unconditional admission.  

Tier 2:  Applicants with a 3.0 GPA and a 4-year degree from a SACS-accredited (or equivalent) institution with any major not listed above will be granted unconditional admission if they satisfied the following course requirements:

Applicant has completed at least 24 semester credit hours of a combination of math and science courses which includes:

  • Calculus 1
  • Calculus 2
  • Statistics
  • Chemistry (at least one course)
  • Physics (at least one course).

Any applicants who do not meet the requirements of either Tier 1 or Tier 2 will be considered for conditional admission on a case-by-case basis.  Please note there are no differences in admission status between students admitted under Tier 1 vs. Tier 2; they are just different routes to unconditional admission.
