M.Eng. Expo

Join us at the M.Eng. Expo, the go-to event to explore Cornell’s Master of Engineering programs, enjoy lunch, and take part in prize giveaways, all while learning how you can shape your own path to a graduate degree. The event is held every year in September.

The M.Eng. Expo is your opportunity to discover how you can build on your Cornell foundation and accelerate your career with a professional master’s degree right here, where you already thrive.

Connect directly with representatives from all 14 Master of Engineering programs at the Ithaca campus and Cornell Tech’s four Master of Engineering programs. Faculty, staff, and current M.Eng. students will be there to answer your questions in a relaxed, informative setting. The Johnson Graduate School of Management will be on hand to discuss how you can earn sequential M.Eng. and MBA degrees. 

Open to all Cornell undergrads — Engineering and beyond. Bring your STEM curiosity, your questions, and start designing your next chapter.

Questions and Answers

  • Who is the event for? Can I attend if I’m not an Engineering undergrad?

    All undergraduate students at Cornell are invited to join us at the M.Eng. Expo to learn about the different M.Eng. program options. You do not need to be in Engineering to attend – we have had many successful M.Eng. students coming to us from Arts & Sciences, Bowers CIS, CALS, and Human Ecology.

  • Can current M.Eng. students attend?

    This event is geared towards prospective M.Eng. students. Current M.Eng. students who enjoy speaking with prospective students and sharing their M.Eng. experience are encouraged to reach out to their program’s graduate field assistant to see if there is availability to take part in the event.

  • I want to learn more about the Master of Engineering programs, but I can’t attend the event.

    Don’t worry, while this is the biggest, it is not the only informational event we host. Follow us on LinkedIn to find out about upcoming information sessions or other recruitment events. Additionally, M.Eng. faculty and staff are always willing to speak with prospective students. Consult the M.Eng. Directory to find your contacts.

  • Early Admit Pathway

    The Early Admit Pathway gives Cornell undergraduates with only a few remaining classes a strategic advantage to get ahead on their M.Eng. degree. You can begin graduate coursework during your final undergraduate semester and complete your master’s on an accelerated timeline, carrying forward up to fifteen credits toward your M.Eng. This head start allows you to transition seamlessly into professional master’s status and fully engage in the M.Eng. experience from day one.
