Executive Master of Science Degree and Certificate Programs in Systems Engineering and Management (MS-SEM)

36 semester credit hours minimum

Faculty

Overview

The certificates and degree programs are jointly offered by the Naveen Jindal School of Management and the Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science.

Admissions Requirements

A student lacking undergraduate prerequisites for graduate courses must complete prerequisites or receive approval from the graduate advisor and the course instructor. Specific admission requirements for the MS- SEM follow.

A student entering the MS-SEM program should meet the following guidelines:

  • A minimum of a BS in engineering, mathematics, physics, chemistry, economics or finance (specifically, programs that provide adequate fundamental skills in mathematics).
  • A minimum of three years of work experience.
  • Submission of three letters of recommendation from individuals who are able to judge the candidate's probability of success in pursuing a program of study leading to the MS-SEM degree.
  • Submission of an essay outlining the candidate's background, education, and professional goals.

Degree Requirements

The MS-SEM program is designed to be flexible to accommodate different student backgrounds, allowing students to learn in areas in which they are deficient, while still guaranteeing core competency in systems engineering and systems management. This program has both a thesis and a non-thesis option. All part- time MS-SEM students will be assigned initially to the non-thesis option. Those wishing to elect the thesis option may do so by obtaining the approval of a faculty thesis supervisor.

The MS-SEM degree requires a total of 36 semester credit hours consisting of 12 courses in the non-thesis option or 10 courses plus six semester credit hours of thesis credit for the thesis option. All students must have an academic advisor and an approved degree plan. Courses taken without advisor approval will not count toward the 36 semester credit hour requirement. Successful completion of the approved course of studies leads to the MS-SEM degree. Please also note that the University's general degree requirements are discussed in the graduate catalog.

Non-Thesis Option

Completion of a minimum of 36 semester credit hours of graduate-level lecture courses including the required core courses. With advisor approval, these may include some 5000 level courses. Students must earn a grade of B- or better in each of four core courses (see below).

Thesis Option

An alternative to the 36 semester credit hour requirement for the MS-SEM degree is the completion of a minimum of 30 semester credit hours of graduate-level lecture courses, with a grade of B- or better in each of the required core courses, six semester credit hours of a combination of master's research (SYSM 6V70) and thesis (SYSM 6V90), submitted to the graduate school, and a formal public defense of the thesis.

Students enrolled in the thesis option should meet with individual faculty members to discuss research opportunities and to choose a research advisor during the first or second semester that the student is enrolled. After the second semester of study, course selection should be made in consultation with the research advisor. Part-time students are encouraged to enroll in only one course during their first semester and in no more than two courses during any semester they are also working full-time.

Research and thesis semester credit hours cannot be counted in an MS-SEM degree plan unless a thesis is written and successfully defended. A supervising committee, which must be chosen in consultation with the student's thesis advisor prior to enrolling for thesis credit, administers the defense. With advisor approval, the lecture courses may include some 5000 level courses. Full-time UT Dallas students who receive financial assistance are required to enroll in nine semester credit hours each semester.

Required Courses

Students are required to take four courses (a total of 12 semester credit hours) from a set of eight courses in the list below. Two of the courses must be from the Engineering Core section and two from the Management Core section. The four required courses contribute a total of 12 semester credit hours toward the MS-SEM degree.

Prescribed Elective Courses

These consist of an additional four courses (a total of 12 semester credit hours) from the set of eight core courses listed and/or the set of courses listed below. Two of these courses must be chosen from the two Engineering sections (core and elective), and two from the two Management sections. Because a program objective is to maintain a high degree of flexibility, students are encouraged to work with a SEM program advisor to discuss possible (limited) exceptions and substitutions for the prescribed courses.
