Mission Statement

The mission of the Systems Engineering MS program is to provide working engineers and scientists with the skills and modern tools needed to manage complex, interdisciplinary technical endeavors and systems engineering teams to enable the realization of successful systems. The students may select the following study plans:

1. The Systems Engineering MS program.

2. The Systems Engineering Leadership Program (SELP) offering a dual MS/MBA degree to provide integrated engineering and business skills for becoming systems engineering managers and leaders. 

The Systems Engineering MS program with a Technical Focus or Concentration in another science, engineering or computer science discipline providing multidisciplinary breadth. The student pursuing this option will take three Electives in another graduate program offered by the Frank R. Seaver College of Science and Engineering at LMU. The student’s prior education must provide suitable preparation for such studies. The course plan must be approved by both the Director of Systems Engineering and the Director of the Technical Focus program.

3. Graduate Certificate in Lean Healthcare Systems (limited to Healthcare professionals)

4. Graduate Certificate in Program Leadership

5. Graduate Certificate in Systems Engineering

Admission and Graduation Requirements

Both admission and graduation requirements are listed individually under the above programs. Please visit those pages.

Promising applicants who do not satisfy requirements will be considered for provisional admission based upon their performance on the GRA or GMAT test, or their classroom performance during their first year in the program.

Schedule

The Systems Engineering MS program and Systems Engineering with Technical Focus MS program are designed to be completed in about two years by a working student taking two courses per semester, including some summer courses.

The dual degree Systems Engineering Leadership Program is designed to be completed in about three years.

The Certificate programs can be completed within three consecutive semesters. Students can be admitted anytime during the academic year. The application deadlines for admission are April 15 for the Summer session, July 15 for the Fall semester, and December 15 for the Spring semester.
