Graduate Students
Welcome to the Manufacturing Engineering Program! These web pages provide information to help you successfully fulfill the requirements of your chosen graduate degree.
Students must fulfill all requirements of the university as well as the specific requirements of the degree program and emphasis area.
Graduate students have procedures that must be completed and deadlines that must be followed. An outline of these, one for master’s students and one for PhD students, is included in this section, to help guide you in an orderly and timely manner.
Remember that it is your responsibility to be informed of and satisfy all requirements by keeping in close communication with the Coordinator of Program Advisement and the Director of Manufacturing Engineering Graduate Programs and by reviewing the information on the OGS website, in the UNM catalog, and in the department’s Graduate Student Handbook.
