Johns Hopkins' Whiting School of Engineering separates full-time residential graduate degrees from its Engineering for Professionals offerings. Applicants comparing computing, electronics and chemical engineering should use the residential MSE curriculum, admissions calendar and fee schedule together. In Electrical and Computer Engineering, students can compare coursework and research-oriented study rather than assuming every master's has an identical thesis requirement.

Selected programme examples

  1. Master of Science in Engineering in Computer Science
  2. Master of Science in Engineering in Electrical and Computer Engineering
  3. Master of Science in Engineering in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering

Admission planning

A little clarity.
A better next step.

Admission planning

Academic eligibility

  • Expect a relevant bachelor's-level academic foundation, transcripts, a résumé, a statement of purpose and recommendations.
  • Electrical and Computer Engineering lists three recommendation letters.
  • Subject preparation is assessed by the department: a chemical-engineering application and a computer-science application are not evaluated using one interchangeable prerequisite list.
  • GRE rules also differ by department; Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering says the GRE is not required.
  • Check the selected MSE instructions rather than transferring a PhD or online-programme rule.

Admission planning

Language requirements

  • Whiting's international applicants must satisfy its English-proficiency requirements unless eligible for an approved waiver.
  • The ECE admissions page describes TOEFL/IELTS evidence and waiver circumstances involving prior education.
  • A waiver is a university decision, not a promise based solely on an English-medium certificate or nationality.

Admission planning

Study intakes

  • Computer Science and ECE list fall and spring MSE entries in the school's 2027-start calendar.
  • Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering lists a fall 2027 MSE intake, with no spring 2027 admission.
  • Research/thesis choices, laboratory availability and normal study duration should be checked at department level.

Admission planning

Application deadlines

  • The official 2027 calendar lists February 15, 2027 for fall MSE applications in the three programmes shown here.
  • The October 1, 2026 spring 2027 deadline for Computer Science and ECE had already passed by this review.
  • Do not present that spring call as still open, or apply the fall MSE date to a PhD.

Admission planning

International tuition

  • The residential engineering master's schedule for 2026–27 is USD 68,670 tuition per academic year, or USD 34,335 per semester.
  • Insurance, fees and living expenses are additional.
  • The separately listed non-resident registration fee concerns an enrolment status, not discounted tuition for international applicants.
  • A 2027–28 rate was not verified.

Admission planning

Scholarships & funding

  • Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering states that MSE applicants are considered for departmental tuition scholarships.
  • Consideration is not an award or a full-funding guarantee.
  • Ask whether an offer covers particular semesters and fees; do not extend a department's scholarship practice to every Whiting master's.
