In an effort to keep our MSSE curriculum and experiential learning opportunities tightly aligned with the evolving needs of science-based industries, we established an Advisory Group in May 2026 to offer program advice and act as a sounding board. These accomplished industry partners provide insights on market trends, emerging skill sets, and real‑world challenges so that our graduates are fully prepared for the jobs of tomorrow.
