Harnessing the Power of Integrative Thinking

The Integrative Systems + Design graduate programs at the University of Michigan’s College of Engineering are composed of six premier degree programs which are housed in several departments but sharing a common transformative approach and vision.  

These degree programs are unique in that they emphasize approaches that are integrative, innovative, creative, and transformative through a portfolio of integrative systems and design academics and translational research.

Master’s degrees are offered in the following programs:  Automotive Engineering, Energy Systems Engineering, Global Automotive and Manufacturing Engineering, and Manufacturing. The Manufacturing program also offers doctoral degrees.  The Master of Engineering degrees can be completed fully online from almost anywhere in the world, or on-campus here in Ann Arbor, Michigan.

The Design Science program is only available on-campus and offers master’s and doctoral degrees.
