Financial Information
Graduate students may receive financial assistance through fellowships, assistantships, tuition support, or loans. For more information, see the College of Graduate Studies Funding website, which describes the types of financial assistance available at UCF and provides general guidance in planning your graduate finances. The Financial Information section of the Graduate Catalog is another key resource.
Fellowship Information
Fellowships are awarded based on academic merit to highly qualified students. They are paid to students through the Office of Student Financial Assistance, based on instructions provided by the College of Graduate Studies. Fellowships are given to support a student's graduate study and do not have a work obligation. For more information, see UCF Graduate Fellowships, which includes descriptions of university fellowships and what you should do to be considered for a fellowship.
The program consists of 30 credit hours of courses and internship. Students will work with an adviser to design a program of study, which will be presented to the program director for approval. If a student has an industrial sponsor, the student's program of study will be developed in consultation with a representative from his sponsoring company. Students are expected to obtain hands-on experience. The capstone requirement for this track is fulfilled by students completing an experiential learning requirement (3 credit hours). At least one-half of the program courses must be taken at the 6000 level.
