Master of Engineering [M.Eng] (Manufacturing)

at Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Courses

• Manufacturing Processes and Systems 
• Control of Manufacturing Processes *
• Introduction to Manufacturing Systems *
• Management for Engineers *

Applications to the Mechanical Engineering (MechE) Graduate Program are accepted from persons who have completed, or will have completed by the time they arrive, a Bachelor’s degree. Most incoming students will have a degree in mechanical engineering or ocean engineering. However, the Department’s admission criteria are not specific in this regard, and talented students with backgrounds in other branches of engineering or in science may gain entry.

To qualify for a graduate degree, applicants are expected to have at least an undergraduate-level exposure to most of the core MechE disciplines (solid mechanics, dynamics, fluid mechanics, thermodynamics, heat transfer, materials, control, design and manufacturing), and to be familiar with basic electric circuits and electromagnetic field theory. Those who are deemed deficient may be asked to make up courses in certain areas before they graduate. The make-up courses may be at the undergraduate-level.
 

Academic Eligibility:
 

• The students must have a bachelor’s degree(3 or 4 years) in any of the respective fields to apply for this program.

• The average GPA of the students in this program is 3.9.

• Students can apply with any bachelor’s degree but majority of the students come from these fields like Computer Science, Economics, Engineering (variety), Finance, Management, Math, Operations Research, Statistics…, etc.

Work Experience:
 

• Work experience is not required but many of the students have an average experience of 15 months.

Language Requirements:
 

• The students whose official language is not English are required to write IELTS or TOEFL exams before applying.

• The TOEFL cut-off for this program is 90 out of 120.

• The IELTS cut-off will be decided by the university department.

Language Requirement Exemption:
 

• Students who have received instruction in English in their primary and secondary schools and students who have been in the United States for four years or longer and have received a degree from an American institution.

Exam Requirements:
 

• The students must compulsorily have to submit the scores of any one of the exams like GMAT or GRE.

• MIT recommends that applicants interview with a member of the MIT Educational Council if available. Council members are MIT graduates who have volunteered to interview on behalf of the Office of Admissions. 

The cost of studying at Massachusetts Institute of Technology varies largely depending on the type of university and the degree chosen. More often than not, humanities, arts, and education courses are less expensive than degrees in medical, engineering, or management. Furthermore, students who choose to study at the postgraduate level typically pay higher tuition fees, which again vary depending on the programme chosen.

Most universities provide scholarships or financial aid to students in order to help them offset their tuition costs. Students should be aware that additional course fees and incidental expenses may not be included in tuition. On average, international students can expect to pay $53450 annually, to study in Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Graduates have already moved into a variety of careers in manufacturing that range from semiconductor process engineering, new product introduction, and factory management to supply chain design and implementation. Several graduates have struck out on their own to provide consulting services, and some have gone on to earn PhDs and become management and engineering faculty.
