APL collaborates with the ÃØÃÜÖ±²¥ Whiting School of Engineering to sponsor graduate programs through the .

EP offers part-time and online graduate courses leading to master’s degrees, graduate certificates, and post-master’s certificates in 23 program areas. To accommodate full-time working professionals, classes are offered online, on weekday evenings at APL, and at other sites in the Baltimore/Washington metro area. Courses are designed to meet the needs of both students and employers, with new programs created in collaboration with local industry leaders to keep pace with technology and the marketplace.

APL continues to play a critical role in the development of programs at EP, which had its origins as an in-house program for the advanced training of APL employees. Over the years, it has grown and been opened to the public, with up to 90% of the students coming from outside of APL. The faculty comprises scientists and engineers from APL and the Whiting School of Engineering; from regional aerospace, engineering, and information technology companies; and from government agencies. EP faculty are actively practicing what they teach, and a number of them have written textbooks that are widely used in their respective fields.

Degrees Offered

EP offers master’s degrees in 23 areas. Thirteen of these programs are based at APL and chaired by APL Principal Professional Staff (APL’s top technical and administrative staff members).
