【专业介绍】

Despite being Cornell Engineering’s most popular graduate program with over 900 students enrolled at any given time, the M.Eng. is not as universally common as other degrees, and many misconceptions remain. A quick Internet search will yield message boards filled with fallacies about the degree.

“The only difference between M.S. and M.Eng. is a couple courses,” incorrectly wrote one user on a Reddit thread attempting to distinguish a Master of Science (M.S.) in engineering from an M.Eng. “The M.Eng. is kind of in limbo between undergrad and grad education,” guessed a user on another message board, while a third person replied: “I don't think you'll be allowed to do research-related jobs if you graduate with an M.Eng. Correct me if I'm wrong.”

Correction: While none of those statements are accurate, the truth is it’s difficult to define what an M.Eng. degree entails because each college—and even each department within a college—offers a slightly different experience. Not all M.Eng. degrees are created equal.

Another reason for the confusion surrounding the degree may lie in its history. All undergraduate programs at Cornell Engineering had been five-year bachelor’s programs until initiatives such as the Higher Education Act of 1965 put pressure on the college to offer a four-year program that would qualify students for new federal subsidies such as loans and Pell grants.

So in1966, the first Cornell M.Eng. degrees were awarded. Two semesters, 30 credits, one degree. At the time, it was still viewed by many as a fifth undergraduate year—a way for students to take classes they couldn’t squeeze into their first four years or to continue exploring different areas of study because they didn’t yet know what they wanted to do for a career. That notion has long faded in the 51 years the M.Eng. has been offered at Cornell.

“Now we have really shifted into students deciding to do this to make a big investment in their future, and they come here because they expect to get something different from the M.Eng. degree,” said Matt Ulinski, a senior lecturer and M.Eng. program director for the Sibley School of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering.

So what is the M.Eng. degree? For all intents and purposes, the main difference between an M.S. in engineering and an M.Eng. is that the M.S. is intended to be more research-focused and used as a potential stepping stone to a Ph.D. or research position, while the M.Eng. provides more technical and practical skills that enhance a student’s marketability to employers. “For me, it’s a professional degree program, and it’s a path to advanced-level work in industry,” Ulinski put simply.

But to truly understand everything the degree has to offer, one must take a deeper look at any of the M.Eng. programs offered by Cornell in 15 different engineering fields. Whether it’s aerospace engineering, computer science, or operations research, the value proposition remains the same: The M.Eng. is a real-world, industry-focused engineering experience customized to meet a student’s specific goals and interests, all packaged with an invitation to the powerful and vast Cornell alumni network.
