Skip the application—let your performance pave your way

Whether you come from a conventional technical background, a STEM academic background, or you’re looking to build your technical skills from the ground up, we've got a unique pathway for you to find a career in engineering management. 
The Northeastern University Fast App performance-based pathway lets you bypass the traditional application process, and jump straight into the MSEM program. Aligned with industry needs, this program helps address engineering skills shortages by enabling the right talent from a wide range of professional and academic circumstances.
Simply provide your basic contact information and tell us about your bachelor's degree of study and a little about your work experience.
You'll then get access to two courses from the MSEM program. Achieve a grade of B or better in both courses (and show us proof of your bachelor's degree by the time you complete the second course), and you'll continue onto the full MSEM degree program in the next academic term. 
Credits earned in the Fast App performance-based pathway are transferred to the MSEM program upon successful completion of the pathway.
If you prefer the long-form standard graduate application, please view the graduate admissions page for more information.
