Master of Science

Our online master's programs give you the flexibility to study where you want, whenever you want. Each course is as rigorous as its on-campus equivalent, allowing you to build real-world knowledge and skills that advance your career without interrupting it.

When you participate in our distance learning programs, you access a wealth of technological and industry knowledge while building a network comprised of Georgia Tech faculty and industry professionals. A media-rich, collaborative learning environment will allow you to interact with classmates and faculty members virtually. You'll also have 24/7 access to online lectures, videos, discussion boards, and more.

Upon completion of their online degrees, many students make the journey to Atlanta for Commencement ceremonies, where they can meet their peers and professors in person.

With the help of GTPE, these postgraduate programs enable working professionals to earn Georgia Tech degrees while continuing to work full-time. You'll experience a level of academic rigor consistent with a top-ranked technology and engineering university.

You’ll gain applied practical learning in a convenient format that combines face-to-face instruction with online learning. This hybrid approach only requires you to commit to three week-long visits to Georgia Tech’s main campus in Atlanta. You will obtain the remainder of your two-year education online via pre-recorded lectures and real-time web-conferencing sessions.

Each program consists of 10 courses. You’ll focus on one class at a time, culminating with a capstone course that challenges you to apply what you’ve learned to address a real industry problem.

Georgia Institute of Technology offers three types of Certificates:

Undergraduate Embedded

Undergraduate embedded certificates are intended to encourage students to use the elective course requirements in their degree program to form a coherent package of coursework in a specified area.

Undergraduate embedded certificates will be granted only to students who, in addition to the undergraduate embedded certificate program requirements, have satisfied requirements for an undergraduate degree. The offering unit is responsible for verifying satisfaction of all undergraduate embedded certificate requirements, as well as completion of an undergraduate degree. Undergraduate embedded certificates are not recorded on the student's transcript or diploma. Arrangements must be made for awarding undergraduate embedded certificates within colleges or offering units. Undergraduate embedded certificates will not be awarded at the Institute level.

Graduate Stand-Alone

Stand-alone certificates may be completed independent of students being enrolled as Master’s or Doctoral student. These certificates represent a cohesive program of study of a smaller size than a Master’s program and provide more flexibility to professionals for pursing graduate education, including a means for professionals to renew and retrain due to a fast-changing work force. When completed, these certificates appear on the student’s academic record (transcript), and the student receives a certificate of completion.
