for the degree of Master of Engineering in Engineering, Autonomy and Robotics Concentration The Master of Engineering (MEng) in Engineering, Autonomy and Robotics Concentration is a professionally oriented degree program for students whose primary intent is a career in industry or government. This degree differs from the Master of Science (MS) degree in that it is a professionally oriented master's degree that is not a pathway to a doctoral program. The Major in Engineering for the M.Eng. degree requires the selection of an interdisciplinary concentration, which must be identified at the time of application.
