University of Cincinnati’s (UC) College of Engineering and Applied Science (CEAS). The college is a research powerhouse with no shortage of cutting-edge labs, innovative curriculum, and world-renowned professors. If you’re looking to expand your knowledge and skills to lead the charge, a master’s or a PhD in engineering at CEAS is the answer. 

“UC offers great engineering programmes and it is ranked top five in the nation for co-ops and the highest ranked university in the State of Ohio for return on investment,” says Bennett Breese, a Mechanical Engineering graduate. “It was a no-brainer to join; UC was the best choice.”

Multifaceted graduate degrees, generous academic support

UC CEAS offers graduate degrees that are at the forefront of 21st-century innovation. Combined with world-renowned faculty and state-of-the-art research facilities, the college’s graduate programmes seek to create bold, new solutions to impact everyday lives. 

The college is home to 35 graduate programmes across over 15 disciplines, spanning aerospace, computer, biomedical, environmental and more. Programmes train graduate students to develop their skills as independent, creative researchers capable of making significant original contributions towards advancing their technical field. Students do not necessarily have to complete a thesis – the college’s Master of Engineering offers students the same industry-level technical courses in just one year, but with the addition of professional and leadership modules instead of research work. 

Regardless of their programme, all graduate students make breakthroughs in research and innovation with the help of the university’s generous funding. Full-time graduate students are well-supported, receiving scholarships to aid them in transforming society with disruptive discoveries.

Cincinnati, the Queen City

Living in Ohio’s third-largest city has many perks. Not only do UC students gain access to a robust network of academic-corporate partnerships and exciting career opportunities, but they do it all while benefiting from Cincinnati’s affordable cost of living.

The city has much to offer beyond affordability. For food enthusiasts, the campus is surrounded by an excellent, up-and-coming culinary scene with hundreds of restaurant options. The city is also home to a vibrant arts scene, including theatres, galleries, and museums steeped in history and creativity. For those passionate about sports, the city is the birthplace of the first professional baseball team and now is the home of a new Major League Soccer team, an NFL team, and four NCAA basketball teams.
