The engineering program quality at LeTourneau rivals that of top tier schools around the nation that currently offer degrees in Engineering and includes everything from biomechanics and aerodynamics to materials science.

Degree



Building on decades of applied research and innovative projects, the Engineering graduate program at LeTourneau University is one of the first to integrate faith in higher education as a key component, consistent with the LeTourneau legacy of engineering education from a Christian perspective.

The Master of Engineering (ME) is a 30-semester hour coursework, non-thesis option that requires three hours of Technical Reporting. This degree carries no research component and is typically funded by the student.

Students benefit from one-on-one interaction with their graduate advisor and are encouraged to contribute independent student academic excellence and research.

The Master of Engineering Program is designed to be completed in four semesters, but can be completed in less or more time, depending on the student's knowledge level and availability. Transition between the Master of Engineering and Master of Science in Engineering degree programs will be possible depending on the progress made and Graduate Committee approval.
