I. Introduction to the School of Engineering
Columbia University School of Engineering (Fourier Foundation School of Engineering and Applied Science) is committed to promoting the frontier of knowledge and transforming self-discovery into meeting social needs.
Since 1864 was founded as a school specializing in metallurgy and mining, these ambitions have been the foundation of the college. Over the years, the teachers and students of the college have made outstanding contributions to science and technology and social progress.
The School of Engineering and Applied Science of Columbia University was ranked as the best engineering school in U.S. News and World Report with 2 1, and the Ivy League school ranked third.
Columbia University School of Engineering and Applied Science is one of the top engineering schools in the United States and even the world. The school's applied mathematics, biomedical engineering, computer science, and financial engineering program operations research are all famous and ranked very high.
At present, the faculty of SEAS includes 27 academicians of the National Academy of Engineering and 65,438+0 Nobel Prize winners. The faculty and alumni of Columbia Institute of Technology won 10 Nobel Prize in physics, chemistry, medicine and economics.
The school also has two wind tunnels, a mechanical workshop, a nanotechnology laboratory, a general-purpose nuclear fission reactor, a large centrifuge for geotechnical engineering tests, and an axial tester commonly used in new york to test bridge cables. Each department has many laboratories in the Morning Edge Highland Campus.
Second, the graduate courses of the School of Engineering
Materials Science and Engineering (Materials Science &; Engineering) belongs to the Department of Applied Physics and Applied Mathematics. To recruit MS and doctoral students, graduate students are required to have a bachelor's degree background, such as materials science, metallurgy, physics, chemistry or other science and engineering majors. This project integrates teaching and research.
Master of Science in Chemical Engineering: Applicants are required to graduate from a bachelor's degree with a background in science and engineering, with an average score of not less than B-; I have studied general chemistry (1), general chemistry (2), calculus (1), calculus (2), calculus (3) and ordinary differential equations. Applicants with non-chemical-related professional backgrounds need to enter the S2E program (S2E) according to the requirements of the school to complete certain preparatory studies.
The Master of Computer Science (MS in Computer Science) program requires applicants to have a computer science or related professional background upon graduation. Non-computer related majors need to take computer science, computer programming, mathematics and other courses first. Such as computer science basics, advanced computer programming, data structures and algorithms, and/or discrete mathematics.
The Department of Computer Engineering of Columbia University is located under the Department of Electrical Engineering, which is jointly established by the Department of Electrical Engineering and the Department of Computer Engineering. Postgraduates only recruit MS students, and applicants are required to have a professional background in computer engineering, computer science or electrical engineering upon graduation. Applicants need to submit GRE scores, and there is no minimum GRE score requirement, but the undergraduate GPA is generally required to be above 3.2.
The Master of Financial Engineering (MSFE) program at Columbia University is located under the Department of Industrial Engineering and Operations. Postgraduates only recruit MS students and need to complete at least 36 course credits (which can be completed in 1 year or 1.5 years). Applicants should have a bachelor's degree and have a professional background in mathematics, probability theory, calculus and current algebra.
Third, the application of engineering graduate students
Degree background requirements: four-year regular university, bachelor's degree
The College of Engineering and Applied Sciences requires that the TOEFL score should be no less than 99, and the IELTS score should be no less than 6.5, neither of which requires individual scores. The computer major requires that the total score of TOEFL is not less than 65,438+000, and the total score of IELTS is not less than 7.0, neither of which requires individual scores. In addition, the College of Engineering and Applied Sciences also accepts a total score of PTE of not less than 68.
GPA Requirements: Postgraduate programs in American universities generally require applicants to have an undergraduate GPA of not less than 3.0.
GRE requirements: Applicants need to submit GRE, scores of GRE subjects for some projects, GMAT scores for business courses, LSAT scores for law projects, and MCAT scores for some medical or public health projects.
