In order to be considered for admission to the MS in Aeronautics and Astronautics program, candidates need to either hold or anticipate holding a bachelor's degree from an American institution or university prior to enrolling at Stanford. Applicants from institutions outside the U.S. must hold the equivalent of a U.S. bachelor's degree from a college or university of recognised standing. Applications are encouraged from students who have a strong technical background in engineering, physics, or a related Science discipline and who meet the aforementioned degree criteria. It is not technically necessary to have a bachelor's degree in mechanical engineering or aeronautics and astronautics.

The MS Program emphasizes developing analytic abilities, making better decisions, developing and executing strategies, and leading people who innovate. Areas of specialties are Financial Analytics, Operations and Analytics, Technology and Engineering Management, Computational Social Science, Decision and Risk Analysis, Energy and Environment and Health Systems Modeling. Depending on whether students decide to finish the programme in a single academic year or extend it to include internships, it usually lasts 12 to 18 months. For an academic year, the program's tuition is INR 54,41,506 a year. This programme can also be completed online or in person, either part-time or full-time. 

The Master's Program in Management Science and Engineering focuses on technical aspects of leadership. Students can complete this programme online or in person, either part-time or full-time. Throughout the academic year, a range of seminars and colloquiums are held every week. With an average starting income of $120,000, Stanford MS&E programme graduates have great employment prospects. Numerous graduates land jobs at prestigious financial institutions, consulting businesses, and technological organizations. The programme boasts a high employment rate within three months of graduation, reflecting its strong industry connections and comprehensive career support services. 

Applicants are required to have an engineering degree or a similar quantitative degree (major or minor) that covers linear algebra and differential calculus of many variables. Applicants are also expected to have completed both MATH 51 Linear Algebra, Multivariable Calculus, and Modern Applications, or an equivalent multivariable differential calculus and linear algebra course (s), and CS 106A Programming Methodology or an equivalent general programming course, before beginning graduate study. Candidates with more coursework in economics, statistics, and general programming are preferred. Work experience is generally not necessary to apply.
