Find up-to-date tuition and fees for the Master of Engineering Program.
The Department of Computer Science does not offer financial aid to M.Eng students. We do not offer full-time Teaching Assistantships, Research Assistantships, or graduate fellowships.
Students in the Computer Science Master of Engineering Program are not eligible for financial awards offered by the College of Engineering. This includes all COE Dean's scholarships and the Knight Scholarship through the College of Business.
The Department of Computer Science is now offering applicants the opportunity to apply for our newly established CS M.Eng Diversity Scholarship. For eligibility and application information please click here: CS M.Eng Diversity Scholarship
Funding is the sole responsibility of the student. Historically, students have financed their studies through family money, assumption of loans, corporate or government sponsorship, or by obtaining an outside fellowship.
We have a limited number of GTRS (Graduate Teaching/Research Specialist) positions.A GTRS is an MEng level course staff position. GTRS positions are generally awarded to students with previous Cornell course or course staff experience.
- Students eligible for these positions will be sent an application about one month before the end of the semester. (TIP: this is not the undergraduate course staff application sent out by CIS Student Employment, but a separate application for MEng students only.)
- Students are considered for available positions for which they express interest and are qualified.
- Not all courses are allocated GTRS positions; selecting several courses of interest is recommended.
- Students will be notified approximately one month before the start of each semester of any offers.
- Students do not always get offered their top choice.
- We discourage all students from assuming they will be awarded a GTRS and warn that they are in no way guaranteed from one semester to the next.
GTRS positions carry a stipend which is paid bi-monthly over the semester in equal installments. No tuition awards are included in the GTRS appointment.
GTRS positions cannot be taken for MEng credit.
The Graduate School offers information on outside fellowship opportunities and where they can be found. Visit the "Fellowships" page for information.
Domestic students can apply for federally subsidized loans by completing a FAFSA form available here www.fafsa.ed.gov
