Master of Science in Civil Engineering (MSCE) in the Institute of Technology and Master of Urban and Regional Planning (MURP)

Degree Requirements: MURP

The MURP degree requires 48 credits, including up to 12 CE credits for MSCE joint degree students. (To be eligible for double-counting, the 12 CE credits must be taken from a list of pre-approved courses.) You complete all required core courses, an internship, and a Plan A or a professional paper. The MSCE thesis may be considered satisfactory for the MURP professional paper requirement. MURP Plan-A students write a separate Plan A paper.

Degree Requirements: MSCE

The MSCE degree requires 30 credits, of which 14 must be in your major field and six outside. (To be eligible for double-counting, the six outside credits must be taken from a list of pre-approved PA courses.) The remaining 10 credits are thesis credits if Plan A (with thesis) or coursework credits if Plan B (non-thesis). You also can focus on environmental planning or transportation planning.
