The program of study for the M.S. and M.Eng. degrees consists of a minimum of 45 credit hours. For the M.S. degree, a student with major professor approval may elect a thesis or non-thesis (technical report) option; a maximum of 12 credit hours is allowed for the thesis and 6 for a non-thesis option. Students who are supported with a Graduate Teaching or Research Assistant ship (GTA or GRA) position much produce a research thesis. The courses offered in the transportation engineering graduate curriculum are listed below (number of credit hours in parentheses). These courses assume that the student has a relevant undergraduate degree, particularly with courses equivalent to CE 392 Introduction to Highway Engineering and CE 491 Transportation Engineering. Should the students not have these basic courses, they would be expected to complete them as they begin their graduate studies.
