Upon graduation, you will:

• Master advanced techniques of analysis and modern tools.
• Translate practical mechanical engineering problems into a quantitative form amenable to an analytical or numerical solution, or to experimental investigation.
• Analyze, interpret, and apply the information obtained by experiment, computation, or analysis, or available in the literature.
• Choose a specialization that best fits your area of interest.
• Apply knowledge, facts, and theories immediately in your work outside the classroom.

Johns Hopkins Engineering for Professionals Electrical and Computer Engineering online, part-time master’s program is one of the largest in the country. And our highly regarded program is one of the best, ranked #5 by U.S. News & World Report.

We value the opportunity to create a hands-on experience. That’s why each student can remotely connect to equipment on campus to conduct measurements. We offer a wide breadth of courses to align with your area of expertise and interests, from computer engineering to satellite communications (instructed by a professor involved in NASA’s New Horizons Pluto mission) to systems and controls.

From a thorough grounding in foundational topics such as electromagnetics, electronic devices, and systems theory, to building the hardware and software architectures of next-generation mobile platforms, students gain valuable skills and knowledge and will be able to:

• Demonstrate the ability to apply advanced electrical and computer engineering theory and methods to translate functional system descriptions into component-level designs and structures.
• Demonstrate the ability to design and conduct experiments or simulations, as well as analyze and interpret the results.
• Demonstrate proficiency in the use of advanced mathematical and analytical techniques and modern engineering tools necessary for engineering practice.

The master’s degree program is designed for students who wish to pursue careers in research and development, or as a step toward Ph.D. or M.D./Ph.D. education. The program has two degree options: a course-based plan consisting of 30 credits and a thesis-based track that requires 30 credits plus a thesis project which is completed in a second year.

Students in this degree program may follow requirements for a concentration in Nanotechnology or may choose electives to focus their studies in areas such as Biotechnology or Nanomaterials. However, a concentration or a focus area is not required for the program. Students can fulfill degree requirements taking courses in the Materials Science and Engineering Program along with materials-related courses from other Engineering for Professionals programs.

The Systems Engineering program offers two degree distinctions—a Master of Science in Engineering (MSE) and a Master of Science (MS). There is no difference in the curriculum for the MSE and MS programs. Your undergraduate degree determines which degree you will earn.  In order to be admitted into the MSE program, you need a Bachelor of Science degree issued by a program accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission (EAC) of ABET.  If you do not meet this requirement (or you did not complete the prerequisites that met all of the EAC of ABET-accreditation requirements for attainment of student outcomes and for sufficient math, science, and engineering design at the Bachelor of Science level), you will earn a regionally accredited MS degree.

CaSE currently offers two MSE degree options:

• Civil Engineering –  focus on mechanics of materials, probabilistic methods, fire engineering, earthquake engineering, infrastructure design for resilience
• Systems Engineering – focus on network modeling, mathematical modeling, optimization, analysis of complex infrastructure systems, public health, urban resilience

Typically limited financial support is available for M.S.E. students. Funding decisions will be made on an individual basis by the Department of Civil and Systems Engineering and will be communicated during the admissions process.

The Data Science Master’s degree at the Johns Hopkins University will provide the training in applied mathematics, statistics and computer science to serve as the basis for an understanding, and appreciation, of existing data science tools.  Our program aims to produce the next generation of leaders in data science by emphasizing mastery of the skills needed to translate real-world data-driven problems in mathematical ones, and then solving these problems by using a diverse collection of scientific tools

The final Capstone Experience in Data Science (EN.553.806) is a research-oriented project which must be approved by the research supervisor, academic advisor and the Internal Oversight Committee.  The Capstone Experience can be taken in multiple semesters, but the total number of credits required for successful completion is six (6). The goal of the final course and written paper is to allow the student to apply data analysis techniques learned in the program, and possibly to extend those ideas to more general settings or to new application areas.  Lastly, the paper will be summarized in a poster session organized at the end of each semester.

The financial mathematics master’s program at Johns Hopkins is offered through the Department of Applied Mathematics and Statistics as a Master’s of Science in Engineering (MSE) degree. The program takes three semesters to complete, with students starting in the later summer and finishing in mid-December. Students with a strong quantitative undergraduate background are encouraged to apply for admission to the program.

The Master’s program in Financial Mathematics will provide a solid foundation in applied mathematics, providing the basis for an understanding and appreciation of existing models commonly used in financial applications and inferential and computational tools for developing their solution.  The program will also furnish the appropriate insights in Finance where quantitative skills are most germane. The combination of these elements will create a springboard for addressing today’s quantitative challenges in finance as well as provide the preparation to meet the challenges of the future.
