Presentation Transcript

  1. Dr. LiubovKreminska • General Advisor • Earth System Science and Environmental Engineering Program (BE) • Earth Systems and Environmental Science and Technology (PSM and MS)

  2. Masters Program Earth Systems and Environmental Science and Technology (ESEST) A new PSM Option at City College of NY Reza Khanbilvardi Director, MS ESEST & PSM Program The City College of the City University ESES/REU Orientation Week June 11, 2014

  3. Earth System Science and Environmental Engineering • Mission • Provide students with professionally oriented educational opportunities to enhance their knowledge of theory, technical capacity, job-ready skill sets in multidisciplinary earth system and environmental sciences and engineering.

  4. Earth System Science and Environmental Engineering • Goals and Objectives • To educate a diverse student body in basic and appliedacademic and research areas leading to new ideas, systems and solutions in the environmental engineering, earth systems science and related fields. • To groom the next generation scientists and engineering by providing appropriate internship opportunities to the students in private sectors, industries, government agencies, and other academic institutions

  5. What is the PSM? • is an innovative, terminal graduate degree designed to allow students to pursue advanced training and excel in science while simultaneously developing highly-valued business skills. • is characterized by "science-plus," combining rigorous study in science or mathematics with skills-based coursework in management, policy, or law. • is developed in concert with industry and is designed to dovetail into present and future professional career opportunities.

  6. About MS ESEST • Masters in Earth System Science & Environmental Engineering (ESEST) officially began in Fall 2013 after the Dept. of Education approval in Spring 2013 • MS in ESEST allows students to take a rigorous academic approach that combines the basic engineering requirements with a thorough scientific foundation. • Flexibility is achieved by choosing courses of interest from a large number of electives. • Students are strongly encouraged to engage in cutting-edge ongoing research at CCNY as well as industrial partners and federal and local agencies through internships. • Placement assistance is provided through the program. Application deadline: May 15, 2014

  7. Concentrations • Water Resources Engineering Management (WREM) • Geoinformatics & Geographic Information Systems (GIS) • Climate & Remote Sensing • Energy

  8. Interdisciplinary Program • Close collaboration between: • Engineering: Civil, Mechanical, Electrical • Earth and Atmospheric Science • Sustainability in the Urban Environment

  9. Admission requirements • GRE Required: No • Minimum TOEFL Scores:533 (PBT), 73 (IBT) • Degree Awarded: PSM/MS (ESEST) • Supporting Documents Required: • Official transcripts from all post-secondary institutions attended • 2 letters of recommendation • Resume/CV • Personal Statement

  10. Curriculum • The PSM Degree in Earth Systems and Environmental Science and Technology requires minimum 30 credits • Each of the concentrations requires a core of courses specific to it plus technical electives

  11. Curriculum Contd… • 4 required courses covering core topics (12 credits) • 1 distribution course and Internship (6 credits) • 3 courses in a specific area of concentration (9 credits) • Final project: Internship with an employer in industry, government, or non-profit organization (3 credits)
