There are three tracks (specializations) in the Engineering Sustainable Systems dual-master's program: Sustainable Energy Systems, Sustainable Design and Manufacturing and Sustainable Water Resources. Through the ESS degree, students integrate the 30-credit M.S.E (master of science in engineering) program with the 42-credit M.S. (master of science) program (which separately total 72 credits) into a 54-credit program. The program takes between two and two-and-a-half years to complete. Students must meet all the basic requirements of each program (see below).
