College of Education and Human Development (CEHD)
The College of Education and Human Development is a vibrant and inclusive scholarly community promoting learning and development across the life span. Our three schools offer a diverse range of academic programs and transdisciplinary opportunities that integrate theory with practical experience, equipping students with the knowledge, skills, and preparation needed to address the challenges of today’s dynamic workforce.
College of Engineering and Computing Graduate Programs and Accelerated Master's Programs (BAM)
CEC offers students connections to and opportunities with some of the nation’s top tech firms. Our graduate programs prepare students to become leaders who use their knowledge of engineering and computing to tackle programs and find solutions that create a safer, cleaner, and more just and prosperous world. Join us to learn more. The College of Engineering and Computing offers undergraduate students opportunity to pursue a master’s degree through an accelerated program and begin taking graduate courses as early as their junior year.
College of Humanities and Social Sciences Accelerated Master's Program (BAM)
The Accelerated Masters Prgrams (BAM) are designed for Mason’s undergraduate students who are masterfully qualified and dedicated. Students admitted to an accelerated master’s degree program have the opportunity to complete both degrees in a reduced amount of time, and at a reduced cost.
College of Humanities and Social Sciences Economics
Economics graduate programs emphasize comparative institutional analysis and the relationships among economic, political, and legal institutions. We offer full-time and part-time doctoral and master’s degrees, a fully-online MA, and an accelerated master’s program. Our graduates apply knowledge of economic theory and specific field expertise to address real-world problems in roles across academia, business, government, and non-profits.
College of Humanities and Social Sciences Programs
At the College of Humanities and Social Sciences (CHSS) at George Mason University, we empower students to become leaders and change-makers in their fields. Our innovative graduate programs blend rigorous academics with hands-on research experiences under world-class faculty. Whether you seek a career-boosting certificate, a master’s degree to deepen your expertise, or cutting-edge doctoral studies, CHSS offers a path tailored to your goals.
College of Science Accelerated Master's Programs
Academically strong Mason undergraduates with a commitment to research or to graduate or professional studies are invited to apply for the College of Science Bachelor’s/Accelerated Master’s (BAM) program!
Applied and Engineering Physics Bioinformatics Management, Professional Science Master’s in Bioinformatics Management, Biology, Chemistry, Climate Data; Climate Modeling Computational Science, Earth Systems Science, Environmental Science and Policy
Communication Graduate Programs (Health, Strategic, Science)
Whether you are helping an organization roll out a new product, lobbying policy makers, tailoring messages to promote health, finding ways to best communicate scientific concepts to a general audience, or building stronger relationships with stakeholders, Mason’s Communication Graduate programs reflect broad and evolving needs in communication.
Computational & Data Sciences Programs
The Department of Computational & Data Sciences includes doctoral programs of Computational Science & Informatics and Computational Social Science, as well as a Master of Science in Computational Science. These programs use computational programs to analyze and predict observable phenomenon in a world where data analytics is becoming increasingly important in understanding society.
Computer Science Program
Our faculty specialize in diverse fields such as software engineering, artificial intelligence, robotics, computer networks, databases, vision, and more. The program is also available fully online, offering students advanced skills in programming, model construction, and analysis of algorithms in top areas of computer science. The MS in Software Engineering program equips graduates with the skills to lead in developing large, complex software systems, focusing on both technical and human aspects. It covers all stages of software development, emphasizing practical problem-solving and considering the technology, cost, and social impact of effective, efficient, and flexible software systems.
Criminal Justice Program
The Master of Science in Criminal Justice advances the knowledge, skills, and career prospects of early-to-mid-career criminal justice professionals and those seeking their first jobs in the criminal justice field. Our program prepares graduates to be leaders and change agents in the criminal justice field. We also offer an accelerated master’s (BAM) pathway to current George Mason undergraduate students.
Criminology, Law and Society Programs
The Department of Criminology, Law and Society is internationally renowned for its applied research in policing, courts, and corrections, with particular emphases in organizational change, community partnerships, crime and place, rehabilitation and recidivism, and social justice. Students in our MA and PhD in Criminology, Law and Society programs pursue a rigorous course of study that prepares them to conduct high quality scientific research in the criminal justice field and make a difference in the development and evaluation of justice policies and practices. They learn cutting-edge social science methods and data analysis skills and collaborate on projects that advance knowledge in the social sciences and help make the criminal justice system fairer and more effective. The MA program prepares students for advanced graduate study at the doctoral level and to pursue competitive, research-oriented positions in a variety of professional settings.
Cultural Studies Program
Cultural Studies is the study of cultural processes under the conditions imposed by the global capitalist system, and the program at George Mason University leads the way in the field by providing a cohesive yet expansive curriculum for that project. We take a definitive view of what constitutes a properly Cultural Studies approach as we study, for example, the dialectical relationships among media and new media, social institutions such as gender and race, and the class character of capitalist society. In addition to studying cultural processes, objects and events, we aim to critique and transform them and our environment; our publications, our coursework and our students’ dissertations thus engage with the key social and political issues of our time.
Environmental Science and Policy Program
The Department of Environmental Science and Policy in the College of Science offers transdisciplinary graduate degrees in understanding and implementing science and public policy to address and solve complex environmental issues that challenge the integrity and sustainability of global systems. Department expertise includes freshwater, estuarine, marine, and terrestrial ecosystems; conservation of biodiversity; environmental biocomplexity; molecular ecology; sustainability science; environmental policy and management; and human/environmental interactions.
GeorgeSquared, Advanced Biomedical Sciences

The Global Affairs graduate program and the Middle East and Islamic Studies graduate program both offer a rigorous curriculum of 30 multidisciplinary credits that provides graduate students with a global perspective and prepares them to enter today’s fast-paced, interconnected world.
Information Technology Programs
The Information Technology (INFT) PhD focuses on the science, engineering, and technology of information processing, an area of study ripe for innovation in a world driven more and more by data. The program accommodates a rigorous and cross-disciplinary PhD study and includes several concentrations to provide program focus.
