Cornell University offers the largest and highest ranked engineering program in the Ivy League.
U.S. News and World Reports ranks Cornell #9 among the best undergraduate schools of engineering.
Cornell offers 14 undergraduate engineering majors, in areas such as Applied and Engineering Physics, along with 20 undergraduate minors.
Cornell also offers 21 graduate degrees in Engineering, and 17 PhD programs.
Students may earn a Masters of Engineering in an online/hybrid program. This program is a 2 year, part-time, course of study. One week intensives on campus take place once a year.
53% of the incoming first year class are women, and 21% of incoming undergraduates are from underrepresented minority groups.
Cornell participates in the Yellow Ribbon Program.
Online Master’s Degrees
Cornell University Master’s Degree
Voted one of the best online colleges for earning your master’s in engineering, Cornell University’s Engineering Management Program offers its students flexibility and quality. All of the classes for the Master in Engineering Management degree at Cornell can be completed online, with the exception of two one-week intensive sessions that take place in August on the university’s Ithaca, New York campus. Classes are also offered asynchronously so students can complete lectures and assignments at their own pace, making it easy for working adults to fulfill their professional responsibilities while furthering their education. While tuition can be costly, running about $2,440 per credit, Cornell offers fellowship opportunities for qualifying master’s in engineering students that can help cover tuition costs. Students also need two years of work experience to apply.
Students in the Engineering Management Program will take courses such as,
Project Management and Leadership
Managing a Culture of Innovation
Economics and Finance for Engineering Managers.
Additionally, students will choose two elective courses, which span topics like Design Thinking for Complex Systems and Negotiations and Contracts for Engineering Management Managing Operations.
An institution’s program specfic score is calculated with seven data points: (1) its student-to-faculty ratio, (2) its the graduation rate, (3) its retention rate, (4) its percentage of online students, (5) its concentrated Influence (a measure of the academic importance of a school), (6) its desirability (a measure of how many students chose to go to an institution), and (7) its exclusivity (a measure of how selective the insitutionis).
For each data point, we score schools based on where they fall compared to the other institutions on our site. Because our scores are based only on institutions with engineering programs and not tied to institutions without these programs, they accurately reflect an institutions’s value to the engineering student. Institutions with missing data receive a zero for that data point.
We weigh each data point and calculate an institution’s raw score. Then we create an adjusted raw score by combining a schools's score with a base score of 50. Finally, we score and rank institutions based on their adjusted score’s comparison to the top scoring institution.
We weren’t able to get all the data we needed for this institution. This score is based on the information they have reported.

Focused on online engineering colleges, our relative cost score compares the average in-state tuitions of institutions with online engineering programs.
Schools that offer a tuition guarantee promise students a fixed tuition rate for a portion of, or the entirety of, their education. This may or may not include fees and other costs.
Schools that offer a tuition pre-payment plan allow students to pay for future credits, semesters, or years of tuition at present-day prices and then use these credits, semesters, or years at a later date.
Schools that offer a tuition payment plan offer students the option to pay for their education in installments instead of a lump sum.
