The Geography and Environmental Engineering, Master of Science in Engineering (MSE) is designed to prepare students with an ABET-accredited undergraduate engineering degree, or equivalent, to enter the workforce as leaders in the field. Students have five tracks to choose from, each with unique curricular requirements.    

M.S.E. Tracks

ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERING AND SCIENCE - This track focuses on the analysis and design of processes that affect the quality of both the natural and built environment. Specific topics include: physical, chemical and biological phenomena relevant to drinking water treatment, waste and wastewater treatment, environmental remediation, air pollution and air quality, and transport and transformation of pollutants in the environment. 

HYDROLOGY AND WATER RESOURCES ENGINEERING - This track focuses on the role of hydrologic processes in various earth and environmental contexts, including extreme events such as: floods and droughts, climate change impacts, transport within aquatic systems, geomorphology and landscape development, and the analysis, design, and operation of water resources systems.

DATA SCIENCE AND ANALYTICS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH AND ENGINEERING - This track emphasizes innovative computational, statistical, and “big data” tools with applications to environmental problems in air pollution, energy systems, hydrology, and climate change.

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT AND ECONOMICS - This track focuses on the use of models of physical and economic systems to analyze and improve the design and operations of public policies, environmental control systems, and infrastructure for energy, transportation, water, and other critical services.

SELF-DESIGNED TRACK - This track allows students to design a curriculum that fits their goals, subject to the general M.S.E. degree requirements described at the beginning of this page. All courses must be approved by the student’s faculty advisor and can be engineering courses (“EN”), arts and sciences courses (“AS”), or public health courses (“PH”). 

Program Requirements

The following general requirements apply to all M.S.E. students:

  • a minimum of 30  graduate credits including no more than 1 credit of seminar, 1 credit of intersession course work or 1.5 credits from CLE (with advisor approval), and 6 credits of independent research counting toward the 30 credits.
  • All WSE graduate students are required to complete AS.360.624 Responsible Conduct of Research (Online), as well as Academic Ethics EN.500.603 Graduate Academic Ethics, in the first semester that they are enrolled as a student.
  • at least 50% of the required 30 credits must come from courses within the department. The Department of Environmental Health and Engineering's course codes are 570, 180-5, and 187-8. 
  • students are permitted to apply up to two classes with a grade of “C” (C-, C, or C+) toward their degree.
  • prerequisites (required) for the M.S.E. program include mathematics: differential equations and computing skills.
  • up to 4 courses from AAP or EP may be taken and counted to receive a master’s degree as long as there is sufficient rigor and prior approval as deemed by the advisor. Students must have written consent from advisor (an email will suffice) prior to signing up for the course.

WSE and BSPH use different credit systems for their courses. A public health course that is listed as 3 credits in the Catalogue is worth less than 3 credits after the Registrar converts that course to the WSE course credit scale. The conversion factor is usually (2/3). I.e., BSPH courses taken by WSE students are converted to two-thirds of the value listed in the Catalogue.

The M.S.E. program is typically a two semester program based on course work alone. However, M.S.E. students have the option to complete an independent research project, submitted as a formal essay or memo (see below). A minimum of two semesters is required to complete the M.S.E. degree without the research project option. Three to four semesters are typically required to complete the degree with a research project. 

Master's Quarterly Meeting

MSE students formally meet as a group four times during the academic year. These meetings aim to build community, provide professional development, and share information about administrative, course, or other programmatic issues.  Those meeting dates are:

Thursday, October 9th, 2025 12:00 - 1:30 pm

Thursday, November 13th, 2025 12:00 - 1:30 pm

Thursday, February 12th, 2026 12:00 - 1:30 pm

Thursday, April 9th, 2026 12:00 - 1:30 pm

Independent Research Project 

The MSE provides an opportunity to do independent research, in addition to the 30 credits of coursework. The work must represent an original hypothesis-driven investigation on a topic of interest to the student and agreed upon by a research advisor. Students are responsible for identifying a faculty member who matches their research interest and is willing to advise a research project. It is recommended that students talk with their academic advisor about a research project as early as possible, and students interested in research must identify a research advisor no later than the beginning of the second semester.We also recommend that students who are interested in research commit to at least two semesters to the project; it can be difficult to both learn the requisite skills and complete an entire project within a single semester.  Students can count up to 6 credits of research (EN.570.803 or 570.800) toward their master’s degree requirements. Beyond this, an additional 6 credits of EN.570.803 or 570.800 should be taken if the independent research option is selected. Students may also drop to part-time status during their last semester of the program and take advantage of lower part-time tuition rates while conducting research. 

Once a research advisor agrees to advise the student, the proposal writing begins. The research proposal may be based on an NSF proposal format. It should include an in-depth review of the literature (~2 pages), specific aims or objectives (about 1 page), the research strategy (3 pages), and references. The proposal should be approved by the advisor before research begins.  

Following successful completion of the research project, the student should draft either a thesis,  a manuscript, or a brief memo based on that work. If a thesis is the chosen format, it should adhere to University guidelines, which can be found on the Johns Hopkins Sheridan Libraries website. Example sections include: Abstract, Background, Methods, Publishable Paper, Conclusions, Appendix (Raw Analysis Results). Students who choose the thesis option should submit an electronic copy of the thesis to the department’s academic coordinator and can submit the thesis to the Sheridan Libraries for archiving. If a manuscript format is chosen, document quality must be suitable for publication in a peer-reviewed scientific journal. The last option is to write a short memo at the end of the research project briefly summarizing the research results. The memo should be roughly five pages in length and include figures, bullet points, or narrative text to succinctly and briefly summarize the research results.  

Students will present their research during a session organized by the Department in May. Presentations should be ten minutes in length, followed by five minutes of questions and answers from faculty and students. The academic team will work with students to schedule the presentations. 

Tracks for the M.S.E. Degree

Self-Designed Track

Student who choose this option can design a curriculum that fits their goals, subject to the general M.S.E. degree requirements described at the beginning of this page. All courses must be approved by the student’s faculty advisor and can be engineering courses (“EN”), arts and sciences courses (“AS”), or public health courses (“PH”). In addition, students interested in this track should notify the department’s academic coordinator during the first semester and should send a preliminary, proposed list of courses that has been approved by that student’s faculty advisor

Students are expected to adhere to all university policies. These policies include those related to grade requirements, registration, academic progress, deadlines, satisfactory completion of exams, and academic integrity, non-academic conduct, and research ethics. Students who fail to follow or meet the established policies may be subject to dismissal.  Below is a sample of critical policies for reference:

CODE OF CONDUCT 

The fundamental purpose of the Johns Hopkins University’s (the “University” or “JHU”) regulation of student conduct is to promote and to protect the health, safety, welfare, property, and rights of all members of the University community as well as to promote the orderly operation of the University and to safeguard its property and facilities. As members of the University community, students accept certain responsibilities which support the educational mission and create an environment in which all students are afforded the same opportunity to succeed academically. 

Allegations of sexual misconduct are covered by JHU’s Sexual Misconduct Policy and Procedures for faculty, staff, and students. The University encourages individuals to report incidents of sexual misconduct and provides a variety of avenues, both formal and informal, by which individuals can report complaints of sexual harassment. Allegations of sexual harassment by students are covered under the JHU program and under the Student Conduct Code. 

All members of the Johns Hopkins community are responsible for immediately informing Engineering Student Affairs of any suspected violations of the non-academic Code of Conduct; and to immediately inform the WSE Office of Graduate Education and Lifelong Learning of any suspected academic/research integrity violations. Specific policy links can be located here. The faculty and students at the Whiting School of Engineering have the joint responsibility for maintaining academic integrity and guaranteeing the high standard of conduct of this institution. 

Students enrolled in the Whiting School of Engineering assume an obligation to conduct themselves appropriately to The Johns Hopkins University’s mission as an institution of higher education. A student is obligated to refrain from acts which he or she knows, or under the circumstances has reason to know, impair the academic integrity of the University. Allegations of violations of academic and research integrity by WSE students are covered under the policies and procedures contained in the General Academic Misconduct Policy and the General Misconduct Policy. 

Personal Relationships 

The Johns Hopkins University is committed to the personal, academic, and professional well-being and development of its students, trainees, faculty, staff, postdoctoral fellows, clinical residents, and all other members of the University community. The University seeks to maintain an atmosphere of mutual respect, collegiality, fairness, and trust. The Personal Relationships Policy implements the University’s commitment to maintaining the integrity of its educational and working environment. This policy focuses on the conflict of interest that may exist when individuals simultaneously engage in both personal and professional relationships in which one individual has the potential to exert substantial academic or professional influence over the other. 

GRADE REQUIREMENTS 

EHE WSE master's students can use up to two C's (C-, C, or C+) toward their degree program requirements.  A course graded D+ or lower can not be used toward graduation requirements. A student not meeting academic minimum requirements may be placed on academic probation.

LEAVE OF ABSENCE 

Policy Statement

The Johns Hopkins University (“University” or “JHU”) is committed to maintaining a welcoming, inclusive, and caring environment for all students. The University grants or requires a leave of absence under appropriate circumstances to support students’ necessary time away for medical, service, hardship, or academic reasons. The Office of the Provost provides leadership and support to University officials acting under this Student Leave of Absence Policy’s (the “Policy”) procedures and related divisional procedures, including consulting with and providing guidance to deans and their designees, registrars, and others to support consistent and fair application of this Policy across the University.

The University complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act (“ADA”) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 which afford protection from discrimination for otherwise qualified students with disabilities. The University will engage in an interactive, individualized process with each Covered Student to determine if there are any adjustments that can be made in accordance with the ADA and Section 504.

How to File for Permission to Take a Leave of Absence

Graduate Students in WSE must schedule a consultation with the Office of Engineering Student Support and Advocacy prior to submitting their LOA application. International students must contact OIS before filing for LOA. Additional information regarding the process for Graduate Students requesting a LOA can be found on the WSE webpages.

Note that PhD students wishing to file for a leave from their work (non-academic/degree-related) appointments should consult the PhD Union Collective Bargaining Agreement for more information on types of leaves available. 

If it becomes necessary to take a break from studies, students should contact their advisor and academic program manager to determine if a formal leave of absence (LOA) is necessary. Any request for change of status must be discussed with the program or track director(s) and academic program manager and approved by the department and school. For more information, please see: 

Parental Accommodations 

Please see the university page on parental accommodations for full-time graduate students and post-doctoral fellows. 

TRAVEL RESOURCES 

Students should check the university's Travel Resources page. 

Students are not obligated to travel internationally, and each student has the right to decline to travel abroad. If the student is supported by a research project that requires such travel and the student chooses not to travel, the student may be removed from that project following discussions with the principal investigator and the EHE program or track directors.

Graduate students who decide to travel abroad must demonstrate that they understand and voluntarily accept the risks inherent in international travel. To do so, students must first receive the appropriate departmental approvals for the trip through their advisor and program or track director(s). Students should also evaluate options for registering travel and obtaining pre-travel immunizations through the school or health care system.  All JHU affiliates (notably in this section- students) traveling outside the US to conduct JHU university work/academic activity/on university payroll must receive prior vetting, guidance,  and approval from JHU export control, the university's tax and global HR offices, as well as the dean's office, so they understand any restrictions/concerns/adjustments to appointments and/or payroll/allowed activities in advance.  Students should contact their academic staff and advisor for more information and the request process.

Immunizations 

Students traveling outside the US are strongly encouraged to contact their health care provider or the Johns Hopkins International Travel clinic in advance of the travel to learn about recommended immunizations and other matters to guard their health. Located on the East Baltimore campus, you can reach the International Travel Clinic by telephone at 410-955- 8931. Students should double check their insurance coverage prior to securing vaccinations/examinations/prophylactics  to understand coverage and potential costs.

Stay Informed 

Students are encouraged to vigilantly monitor consular and press reports regarding the country (or countries) where they plan to travel. Students may also check the consular reports of countries friendly to the U.S. (e.g., Australia, Canada,, United Kingdom) as well as reports from other international agencies (e.g., United Nations). Students should participate in the security briefings offered by other organizations with whom they may be working. 

Maintain Communication 

When traveling in an area where regular communication is difficult, students are encouraged to maintain contact with their advisor and/or the academic program manager. 

State Department Registration 

For students who are likely to stay for a prolonged period in a high- risk area of the world, registration at the U.S.US embassy or consulate is essential. 

International Students 

OIS may be contacted at 410-955-3371. International students must contact the Office of International Services (OIS) well in advance of any travel to avoid compliance issues with their visa status. 

Healix International 

Johns Hopkins has implemented a comprehensive travel assistance program supported by Healix International. For more information visit the International Travel for the University & Health System page. 

ACADEMIC GRIEVANCE POLICY: STUDENTS AND POSTDOCTORAL FELLOWS

Policy Statement

Johns Hopkins University seeks to provide a supportive educational, training, and professional environment. The University provides several avenues of redress for students and postdoctoral fellows who believe they have been adversely affected in their professional or educational activities as a result of an arbitrary or capricious act, or failure to act, or a violation of a University, division, school, or center procedure or regulation by their supervisor, department chair, center director, or other administrator or administrative body. The University encourages individuals involved in such disputes to resolve the matter informally. This Policy is only to be used to resolve serious matters which meet the definition of a “grievable” matter and cannot be resolved through informal discussions or processes, and is only to be applied after reasonable efforts have been made to settle the dispute informally.

Review the full policy in the JHU Policy and Document Library.

What is a Grievable Matter

·       A “grievable” matter is a complaint that a Grievant has been directly and adversely affected in his/ her education, training, or professional activities as a result of an arbitrary and capricious act, or failure to act, or a violation of University or School policy or procedure by the University, School, or anyone acting officially on behalf of the University or School, other than the matters exempted below.

·       A matter is considered grievable under this policy only if the nature of the complaint is not covered by any other established University or Division policy or procedure.

 A student who has a concern about an academic decision or act of a faculty, staff member, or student of the Department of Environmental Health and Engineering, should follow the steps outlined below: 

First, Attempt to Resolve Informally Through Local Channels

1.     The student should first approach the person or parties (e.g., academic advisor, related office, etc.) directly involved as soon as possible to discuss questions or concerns. If they are not comfortable with this, they may elect to contact the program for assistance first. Additionally the WSE Office of Engineering Student Support and Advocacy can offer non-clinical, non-academic support to talk through options and steps.  For PhD Students, they may elect to reach out to the university's PhD and postdoctoral ombuds office.

2.     If the issue or concern is not resolved at the first level the student is encouraged to contact the program for assistance. A written request for problem resolution is requested at this stage. This request should include specific details about the problem, documentation if appropriate, and a suggestion for resolution. 

3.     If no resolution can be found in prior steps, the matter will be referred to a Grievance Arbitration sub-Committee within the EPC, who will address the problem as they deem necessary, and make a recommendation to the Department Chair. 

If an Informal Resolution is Not Possible, Consider Filing a Formal Academic Grievance

If the matter is not resolved within the Department or requires review and/or decision at the School or University level, a student may refer to the university's academic grievance policy above for next steps.

TRANSFER CREDITS

Standard WSE policy and limitations on MS transfer credits apply (https://engineering.jhu.edu/graduate-studies/academic-policies-procedures-graduate/). In addition, use of each transfer course toward satisfaction of a specific degree requirement must be approved in writing by  the student’s advisor.
