Graduate Studies launches Master of Science in Cybersecurity program
This is an unofficial description for this program. For official information check the .
The Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering is a program of study requiring 128-134 credits of undergraduate work, including a two-term senior project capstone requirement completed through oral and written reports and a 400-hour internship. If desired, the candidate may also choose an appropriate sequence of elective courses for a concentration in Manufacturing or Aerospace.
Required coursework can be grouped in four categories: General Education, Major Requirements, Electives or Concentration Requirements, and Additional Requirements.

Accelerate ÃûæÂÖ±²¥ B.S./ M.S. Mechanical Engineering
Eligibility
Students typically apply during their junior year of study and must meet the requirements specified below:
- Have completed , , , , and with at least a 3.00 grade point average in those courses.
- Have at least a cumulative 3.30 grade point average. At least 30 credits must have been earned at CCSU.
Eligible Mechanical Engineering majors can apply to the Accelerate ÃûæÂÖ±²¥ B.S. / M.S. Mechanical Engineering Program in the second half of their junior year. Students admitted to this program may complete both the B.S. and M.S. in Mechanical Engineering in as few as five years on a full-time basis. For students who are officially admitted to the Accelerate ÃûæÂÖ±²¥ B.S. / M.S. Mechanical Engineering Program, three graduate courses will double-count as courses in the General Concentration for a total of 9 credits double-counted. In addition, students may take a fourth graduate courses before matriculation as a graduate student; this course will be excluded from the student’s B.S. program and transferred into the student’s M.S. program.
Students who successfully complete this program will earn both degrees in 149 credits total, versus the 158 credits required to complete both degrees separately.
How to apply:
Students will submit , a resume, and the name of two professors from the Mechanical Engineering department who could serve as a references to their undergraduate advisor by February 10 (for Fall) or October 1 (for Spring). The documents will go through the proper parties for review and approval, including the Graduate Program Director. Once the form has been approved by all required parties, the Registrar’s Office will change the student’s undergraduate curriculum to note the Accelerate ÃûæÂÖ±²¥ program.
Note: After acceptance, students must maintain a 3.0 cumulative grade point average.
