Propel yourself forward with a professional master's degree in engineering from Rice!

The professional master's program is designed for those who seek to round out their engineering education with advanced analytical and technical expertise. It gives you a chance to add depth to your areas of interest and to round out your training, and it prepares you for a leadership role in engineering management. Employers value the knowledge and maturity it takes to complete the degree, which further signals your interest in the field.

Here's what some of our graduates have said about the program:

It allows you to "learn really useful things that you can put to work right away and that give you an advantage at work."

"For those of us who did not want a Ph.D., this lets us distinguish ourselves."

"It was the most fun I've had at Rice. The classes are small, the access to professors is great. They want to talk to you about what interests you." —former Rice undergrad and master's program graduate
