Plan A - Thesis Option
Plan A Thesis Plan requires thirty (30) credit hours of course work and a thesis. Plan B - Non-Thesis Option
The non-thesis option is reserved for students who have significant experience in a manufacturing environment, where completion of a thesis would be less beneficial than the additional course work involved in Plan B. The non-thesis option requires thirty hours (30) of course work. Additional Requirements
The remaining courses can be selected from the list of other MFS courses as well as non-MFS prefix courses. At least two thirds of the courses must be from the MFS program (MFS prefix). At least 15 credit hours must be earned from courses at the 600-level or above. A maximum of 6 credit hours of MFS 780 - SPECIAL PROBLEMS IN MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS ENGINEERING may be included. |
