The University of Alabama offers both research-based and professionally focused programs, at the master’s and doctoral level. Our campus is not only beautiful (among the 50 Most Amazing Campuses, bestcolleges.org 2017), but has facilities that are second to none—laboratories, collaborative study space, and high-tech classrooms and workspaces.

The University Of Alabama Graduate School

The Department of Aerospace Engineering and Mechanics offers a Master of Science in aerospace engineering and mechanics degree via an on-campus program and an off-campus (distance learning) program through the College of Continuing Studies. An MSAEM can be earned by coursework only or by a combination of coursework and an approved thesis. Most distance learning students elect to complete the coursework-only degree option. On-campus students supported by assistantships are expected to complete an approved thesis.

On-Campus

MS in Aerospace Engineering and Mechanics

Our Master’s program offers a streamlined educational experience that bolsters knowledge and professional skills in chemical engineering. The program covers basic subjects important to all chemical engineers, including thermodynamics, transport phenomena, kinetics, and applied mathematics, along with coursework tailored to student interest. All students in the thesis-based track (Plan I) conduct innovative, original research in faculty-run labs. All students in the non-thesis track (Plan II) complete specialized coursework in chemical engineering and a capstone experience. The Master's degree typically requires one to two years to complete, depending on the intensity of study and whether a thesis is produced. We welcome students with undergraduate degrees in chemical engineering, as well as in other related STEM fields such as chemistry, biology, and materials science and engineering. Students entering with a degree other than a BS ChemE, however, may require additional coursework, thereby adding time to the degree.

MS in Chemical Engineering

The MTE department is one of only eight accredited metallurgical degree-granting institutions in the United States. Its core emphasis in metallurgy and materials provides students depth in structure-processing-property relationships.
