It is an industry-oriented 1 year-long master’s program. The website says it can be used as preparation prior to applying to a PhD program (or to get more experience and a higher starting salary than a BS would provide). It is not a research-oriented program, and would seem somewhat lower down on the “prestige” scale than the 2 year-long MS degree the department also offers. It seems kind of lightweight in terms of actual engineering coursework/experience.

Although – for entry into industry, it might be ideal. Try talking to the career services office at Cornell to get info on where graduates get job offers.
