Graduate Programs in Biomedical Engineering
Biomedical engineering is an interdisciplinary program and a joint effort of the Purdue School of Engineering and Technology, the Purdue School of Science, and the Indiana University Schools of Medicine and Dentistry at Indiana University–Purdue University at Indianapolis (IUPUI). In addition to these participating academic units, the program operates in close collaboration with several centers and facilities on campus, and with the Department of Biomedical Engineering at Purdue University, West Lafayette.

Students interested in the M.S.B.M.E. degree may apply directly to the Department of Biomedical Engineering in the Purdue School of Engineering and Technology. Students planning to pursue the Ph.D. degree, apply directly to the Weldon School of Biomedical Engineering at West Lafayette, even though they may be resident and study on the Indianapolis campus.

Graduate Programs in Electrical and Computer Engineering
Students may earn the Master of Science in Electrical and Computer Engineering (M.S.E.C.E.) or the Master of Science in Engineering (M.S.E.), through the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the Purdue School of Engineering and Technology at IUPUI. The M.S.E.C.E. degree is organized into several areas of study, including computer engineering, controls and automation, communication and signal processing, and VLSI and circuit design. The M.S.E. degree provides an interdisciplinary plan of study and is typically offered to Bachelor's degree holders in fields other than electrical or computer engineering.  Students with bachelor's degrees in fields other than electrical or computer engineering may pursue the M.S.E.C.E. if they successfully complete the prescribed prerequisite courses.

Qualified students may be approved to pursue the Ph.D. degree in electrical and computer engineering at IUPUI. Programs leading to the Ph.D. in electrical and computer engineering are administered jointly with the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering at Purdue University, West Lafayette.

Graduate Programs in Mechanical Engineering
The Department of Mechanical Engineering has an outstanding engineering faculty with research interests and expertise in the areas of advanced computer-aided design and manufacturing, materials, biomechanics, composites, computational fluid dynamics, computer-aided design, combustion, controls, fluid mechanics, finite element analysis, fracture, heat transfer, propulsion, robotics, solid and structural mechanics, stress analysis, and turbomachinery. The department offers graduate programs of study that lead to the degrees of Master of Science (M.S.), Master of Science in Engineering (M.S.E.), Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering (M.S.M.E.), and Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering (Ph.D.M.E.).  The program leading to the Ph.D. in mechanical engineering is jointly administered with the School of Mechanical Engineering at Purdue University, West Lafayette.

The department also offers two accelerated combined bachelor's and master's degree programs, which enable students to complete both B.S. and M.S. degrees within five years. The combined degree programs are available to high achieving mechanical engineering undergraduates leading to a combined B.S. and M.S. degrees in M.E. (B.S./M.S.M.E.) or a combined B.S. degree in Physics and M.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering (B.P.M.M.E.) for high performing physics undergraduates. The combined degrees prepare students for advanced engineering careers with two degrees (bachelor's and master's) in five years.

In addition to graduate degree programs, the department also offers graduate certificate programs in the following areas:

  • Graduate Certificate in Computer-Aided Mechanical Engineering
  • Graduate Certificate in Energy Management and Assessment
  • Graduate Certificate in Hybrid Electric Vehicle Technology
  • Graduate Certificate in Systems Engineering

Master of Science in Technology
The School of Engineering and Technology offers graduate education in technology with the primary goal of developing advanced technical skills for practitioners in industry.  The Master of Science in Technology (M.S.T.) degree program is designed so that graduates holding a B.S. degree in a technology discipline or a related area can complete their degree as a full-time or part-time student while working full-time.  The graduate degree program offers concentrations in Facilities Management (an online program) and in Motorsports.  Additional areas of focus available are Information Security and Assurance (InfoSec), Human Resources Development (HRD),and Technical Communication as well as an interdisciplinary plan of study that draws courses from the full complement of technology programs in the School.  The M.S. in Technology curriculum consists of a total of 33 credit hours with plans of study ranging from "course only" to those which include a directed project.

Graduate Certificate in Human Resource Development (HRD)

In addition to the M.S. in Technology degree program the Department of Technology Leadership and Communication (TLC) also offers a graduate certificate program in Human Resource Development.
