Meet our students!
Our program's primary goal is to prepare graduates for stimulating professional careers in research and development in industrial, national laboratory, healthcare, and other settings upon graduation. The Illinois M.Eng. is a stand-alone degree, and is not intended as a first step towards acceptance into a university PhD program. Even so, about half of our 2023-2024 students had, as their preferred path, enrollment in a PhD program after graduating from the master's program. All were been accepted into at least one doctoral program. The remaining students chose to apply for STEM positions in the workforce.
