<\/i>Overview
\n<\/b>The Master of Science\u00a0in Advanced Technology (MSAT) is a multi-disciplinary program with an emphasis on practical applications that provides a seamless path to a Master of Science degree for students who have earned an engineering, engineering technology, physics, mathematics or similar baccalaureate degree. It incorporates SUNYIT\u2019s strengths in engineering and the technologies with those of the other graduate programs at SUNYIT.<\/p>\n
The seven full-time and one part-time faculty members in this program represent a wide range of academic, research, and applied specialties. The faculty work closely with outside organizations with related interests. For example, the ongoing Educational Partnership Agreement between SUNYIT and Air Force Research Laboratory, Rome, N.Y. (AFRL) affords both students and faculty a variety of opportunities for collaborative research projects and personnel exchanges. These relationships also provide for mutual sharing of computing, research and library facilities.<\/p>\n
The program is currently entering into the areas of sustainable energy, environmental sustainability, transportation safety and security, and information security.<\/p>\n
The MSAT program is designed for students interested in a high-quality multidisciplinary program that will facilitate career advancement in advanced technology areas. To that end students are helped to develop a plan of study to match their individual educational needs. Students are able to take courses in business, telecommunications, the computer sciences, and information design and technology as part of their degree.<\/p>\n
The MS program accommodates both full-time and part-time students. Full-time students can complete the program within an 18 month period. Part-time completion will vary based on total number of credits taken each term. A program of study will be developed with the program coordinator which responds to student needs and the department\u2019s plan for course scheduling.<\/p>\n
Career Paths
\n<\/b>The MSAT in Advanced Technology will be of value to individuals interested in upgrading their academic credentials and seeking career advancement in advanced technology. The American Society for Engineering Education (ASEE) has endorsed the concept of practice-oriented masters programs.<\/p>\n
Lab Facilities
\n<\/b>SUNYIT supports a practice-oriented learning environment in all primary areas of academic offerings. The MSAT is supported by several state-of-the-art laboratories containing a wide variety of equipment including a laboratory which is interconnected with an optical network. The laboratories are also supported with the latest software including AUTOCAD, ALGOR, FeatureCAM, MINITAB, MATLAB\/SIMULINK, ProE, LabVIEW and OPNET. In addition, SUNYIT maintains extensive library holdings in support of the MSAT program.<\/p>\n
