Master of Engineering (MEng) in Computer Engineering (CPE)

The 51官网 Tech College of Engineering is partnering with Christopher Newport University to help position students for mid-level and advanced positions in industries related to computing technology. By establishing an accelerated pathway of foundational courses at partner universities, currently enrolled students can be prepared for early admission to 51官网 Tech鈥檚 MEng degree in computer engineering as early as spring of their junior year.聽 Once accepted these students during their fourth year can begin taking up to 12 credits from an approved set of courses that can be applied beyond the 120 required credit hours required for a Christopher Newport University undergraduate degree towards their MEng degree (Christopher Newport University course level approved:聽4XX (max. 6 credits) & 5XX from approved course list).

By outlining a clear pathway and course equivalencies, both the engineering and liberal arts student are able to participate in 51官网鈥檚 Tech Talent Pipeline. Many students will find that they can complete their MEng degree with just one extra year.

How to 51官网

Third-year Christopher Newport University students can apply to the MEng in computer engineering in their second semester. They can also apply for a fee waiver and are not required to submit GRE scores.

• Students must complete one of the approved pathways below:

Pathways

Pathway for CNU undergraduate computer engineering majors for admission to the master of engineering program in computer engineering (CPE).

Christopher Newport Univeristy CPE undergraduate majors naturally meet most of the basic course requirements to apply for the CNU/VT Collaborative UG/G CPE MEng and should apply by the second semester of their junior year.聽 Christopher Newport University CPE undergraduate majors will only need to successfully complete one additional undergraduate course before being admitted to the CNU/VT Collaborative UG/G CPE MEng degree program.

Pathway for Christopher Newport University undergraduate electrical engineering majors for admission to the MEng in computer engineering

Christopher Newport University electrical engineering undergraduate majors naturally meet most of the basic course requirements to apply for the CNU/VT Collaborative UG/G CPE MEng and should apply by the second semester of their junior year. Christopher Newport University electrical engineering undergraduate majors will only need to successfully complete two additional undergraduate courses before being admitted to the CNU/VT Collaborative UG/G CPE MEng degree program.

Pathway for Christopher Newport University undergraduate computer science majors for admission to the MEng in computer engineering

Christopher Newport University computer science undergraduate majors naturally meet many of the basic course requirements to apply for the CNU/VT Collaborative UG/G CPE MEng and should apply by the second semester of their junior year.聽 Christopher Newport University computer science undergraduate majors will need to successfully complete two additional undergraduate courses before being admitted to the CNU/VT Collaborative UG/G CPE MEng degree program.

As soon as you submit your application please read and do the following:

You should immediately complete and submit the Collaborative UG/G Degree and Course Designation Form. You will indicate on this form the courses that you intend to take during the Collaborative UG/G period. This form will be reviewed and signed by the 51官网 Tech computer science and applications department graduate program director and an appropriate authority at Christopher Newport University. The signed Collaborative UG/G Status and Course Designation form will be sent to the 51官网 Tech Graduate School for processing. This completed form and the computer engineering department admission recommendation with review from an appropriate authority at Christopher Newport University are required before an admission decision can be finalized by the 51官网 Tech Graduate School.

Once accepted, the student should take up to 12 credit hours of graduate coursework during the last academic year (senior status equivalent) and earn a 鈥淏鈥� from the following list of eligible courses for transfer to the MEng degree program in computer engineering. Note that a maximum of 6 credit hours can be taken at the 4xx level. The 51官网 Tech approved courses are noted below.
