The Henry Samueli School of Engineering and
Applied Science (HSSEAS) at UCLA is proud to announce that its
Master of Science (M.S.) degree, with the diploma designation
“Master of Science in Engineering”, delivered OnLine, is entering
its second year. The primary purpose of this Program is to
enable employed engineers and computer scientists to enhance their
technical education beyond the Bachelor of Science level and to
enhance their value to the technical organizations in which they are
employed. The training and education that the Master of Science in
Engineering Program offers are of significant importance and
usefulness to engineers, their employers, to California and to the
nation. It is at the M.S. level that the engineer has the
opportunity to learn a specialization in depth. It is at the M.S.
level that those engineers with advanced degrees may also renew and
update their knowledge of the technology advances that occur, and
have been occurring, at a rapid rate.
This Master of Science program is addressed to those
highly-qualified employed engineers who, for various reasons, do not
attend the on-campus M.S. programs, and who are keenly interested in
maintaining up-to-date knowledge of “cutting-edge” engineering and
technology.
Each student's transcript will list courses by
department name and course number, in the same manner as they are
for the on-campus programs. The transcript's degree designation will
read "Master of Science in Engineering" and, because of equivalency
with the On-Campus program, will have no “Online” designation.

Distinctive Features
of this Program |
| |
|
|
| |
Each course is fully equivalent
to the corresponding on-campus course; only the mode of delivery
is different. Each course is taught by the faculty members who
teach the on-campus course. The OnLine lectures are separately
and carefully prepared for the OnLine student.

The
Master of Science in Engineering degree allows for
combinations of courses in different departments and
thereby for multidisciplinary emphases. When an
area-of-study is within a department of the School, an
additional certificate will be issued stating the nature
of the equivalence to that department’s Master of
Science degree.

The Program
is delivered by electronic means. Students of the Program
receive all course materials, including lectures, in an
“on-line” manner. The current mode of delivering many courses
within HSSEAS already relies heavily upon electronic means,
using the School’s full service WEB interface, “CourseWeb.”
