The Master of Engineering MEng track in Architectural Engineering provides a graduate degree that focuses on the practice of engineering in order to better serve working professionals Rather than culminate in a research experience and a thesis the Master of Engineering curriculum provides skills and expertise that enhance the individual s ability to contribute to the technical workforce The difference between the traditional Master of Science degree and the MEng degree is not on the rigor of the coursework or a lack of competencies but rather on the focus of the curriculum The program provides advanced training to students interested in expanding their knowledge and expertise Depending on a student s interest the degree could add significant depth to an individual s understanding of the practice of engineering or the program could be constructed to focus on greater inter-disciplinary breadth if that is the educational objective of the student In today s competitive technology environment industries need to have highly skilled practicing engineers who are flexible in their professional capabilities The MEng program is a practice oriented focused degree and caters to this need While students have up to 18 months to complete the degree all requirements can be completed in one year
