The UCLA Reliability Engineering graduate program is designed with a fresh perspective that addresses the current needs of the industry for ensuring reliability of engineered products and services, but also anticipates future needs and pushes frontiers into the realms of machine learning, advanced prognostics and health monitoring, and advanced methods to tackle reliability of complex Cyber-Physical-Human (CPH) systems.

The program is offered through UCLA’s Master of Science in Engineering Online (MSOL) which has been consistently ranked as ONE OF THE BEST online graduate engineering programs, and in 2024, UCLA Samueli is ranked #1 in online Engineering Programs.
