Distance Education and Site-Based Engineering Programs
Engineering Online, our distance education program, offers certificates, professional development programs, and graduate engineering degrees. Two site-based engineering programs also offer NC State engineering degrees. The two site-based programs do not require you to move to NC State University in Raleigh, but they do require you to be at the respective sites. Lastly, the College of Engineering also oversees three pathway sites, each with an NC State program director onsite, where students may begin their engineering studies.
- Engineering Online
- Site-Based Engineering Programs
- Mechanical Engineering Systems in Havelock, N.C.
- Mechatronics in Asheville, N.C.
- Pathway Programs
The Master of Biological and Agricultural Engineering degree is offered through NC State’s Online and Distance Education programs.
