USC Viterbi School of Engineering’s Master of Science in Sustainable Engineering is an interdisciplinary degree program designed to equip students with the critical thinking and analytical skills needed to tackle the world’s most critical sustainability challenges from an engineering systems perspective. Students take three core classes to develop expertise in the science of climate change, the global energy system transition, and quantitative lifecycle assessment, and then choose a technical emphasis in Energy and Power Systems, Buildings and Infrastructure, or Fate of Pollution to complement their core. This program differentiates itself from other engineering MS programs in that it combines courses from majors across the Viterbi School of Engineering, enabling students to build a cross-disciplinary curriculum that reflects their own unique interests.
The Sustainable Engineering program requires a minimum of 28 units (typically seven courses). At least 19 units must be at the 500-level or above. At least 18 units must be completed in the Viterbi School of Engineering (or with courses offered by other USC schools but cross-listed in a Viterbi department).
