What We Are
Welcome to the Integrative Systems + Design graduate programs at the University of Michigan’s College of Engineering. Six premier degree programs are housed in several departments, but have a common transformative approach and vision.
Master’s degrees are offered in the following programs: Automotive Engineering, Energy Systems Engineering, Global Automotive and Manufacturing Engineering, Systems Engineering + Design, 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.
These degree programs are unique in that they offer more ways to be integrative, more ways to lead, more ways to be creative, more ways to innovate, more ways to be transformative, more ways to offer translational research, and more ways to connect.
