Master of Science (SM)

The SM degree is awarded for the successful completion at Harvard of eight half-courses (one half-course runs one term) comprising an integrated program of both depth and breadth of preparation. Students admitted to the PhD program can apply for and receive the SM on completion of the requirements for the master’s degree.

Master of Engineering (ME)

Students who wish to pursue more advanced formal training without undertaking the research required for the PhD degree may earn the ME degree by successfully completing one year of coursework beyond that required for the SM degree. The ME is considered a terminal degree. No dissertation, foreign language, or general examination is required.
