MS Costs and Support
Affordability and flexibility are big factors when choosing your graduate degree program and we understand that this is an investment in your career.
While the MS program is usually a three semester program, students may choose to accelerate their study and graduate after two semesters - completely eliminating the tuition in your third semester. This is a great option for students who are eager to enter the workforce after graduation.
For up-to-date general information on graduate student tuition and fees, please visit the CMU HUB for tuition and fee information.
Flexibility to Accelerate Program
One other factor to consider is our flexibility. Our MS program is designed as a three-semester program; students may choose to accelerate their study and graduate after two semesters with a heavier course load. This is an excellent option for students eager to enter the workforce after graduation.
GEM Fellowship Program
The National Consortium for Graduate Degrees for Minorities in Engineering and Science, Inc. (GEM), a nonprofit organization, was formed to help assist underrepresented groups (African Americans, Native Americans, and Hispanic Americans) at the masters and doctoral levels in engineering and physical science.
The College of Engineering is pleased to support the GEM Fellowship program by offering a generous award to recipients in the GEM MS Engineering Fellowship Program. A few select applicants will be eligible for an award which augments the GEM contribution to the fellowship and will help to defray your overall cost of attendance in the MS program at CMU.
The application cycle for this program is July 1 – November 15.
