About the Concentration
The Computational Engineering concentration offers an area of specialization for students in interdisciplinary engineering. This program was created for professionals who wish to build a competitive edge in a wide variety of industries. Students in this program will focus heavily on computational engineering topics and technical knowledge. Program Website Concentration Requirements
30 Credits RequiredRequired Courses (10 credits)
Seminar Course (1 credit)
Core Courses (6 credits)
Two core courses must be selected from two different groups below. If two core courses are taken from the same group, only one will be counted. Relevant CSE Course (3 credits)
Choose one. Additional Requirements
Interdisciplinary Engineering students: The MSE or MS degree requires a total of 30 credit hours with at least 18 credits of Purdue, graduate level, engineering courses. The computational engineering (CSE) concentration must be completed within these degree requirements. Additional steps are required for the concentration. Students who select the Computational Engineering concentration also need to submit a short application to the Computational Interdisciplinary Graduate Programs (CIGP) department after gaining admission to the Interdisciplinary Engineering program; the application should be emailed to cigp@purdue.edu. CIGP program applications are accepted all year but are only reviewed after the following deadlines: October 1 (Fall) and March 1 (Spring). Poster requirement: During the final semester, students will complete their poster presentation at the Fall CIGP Symposium held in November and the Spring CIGP Symposium held in April.

Graduate Programs Disclaimer
- The student is ultimately responsible for knowing and completing all degree requirements. Students should consult with their advisor/department for more information.
- Not all graduate programs may be actively recruiting students and course modality availability may vary.
- Please refer to the Explore Graduate Programs website for a list of currently available graduate programs.
- Transfer credit policy: Credits earned for graduate study at other universities (both domestic and international) may be applied toward an advanced degree. Only credit hours associated with graduate courses for which grades of B- or better were obtained will be eligible for transfer. Any additional conditions under which credit transfers may be made are determined by the various departments.
- Comparative information about Purdue University and other U.S. educational institutions is also available through the College Navigator tool, provided by the National Center for Education Statistics, and through the U.S. Department of Education College Scorecard.
