The Microelectronic Engineering program, in conjunction with the RIT Material Science and Engineering program offers qualified students the opportunity to pursue a combined BS degree in Microelectronic Engineering and MS degree in Material Science and Engineering in a five and a half year program. One semester of coop is waived to allow students to complete the programs in a reduced timeframe.
Interested, qualified students can apply to the program in the spring of their second year. Students must have a minimum GPA of 3.2. A listing of required and elective Material Science and Engineering courses can be found at https://www.rit.edu/science/programs/ms/materials-science-and-engineering
Interested students should contact Dr. Santosh Kurinec for a list of recent MS thesis titles and further details about the program.
After meeting with Dr. Kurinec interested students should then contact the Materials Science and Engineering program at: https://www.rit.edu/science/programs/ms/materials-science-and-engineering
