Master's Degree in Engineering Management

By combining courses in systems, engineering, and management, we provide the right mix of technical and management content to prepare engineers and scientists to assume positions of increasing responsibility.  The information age has produced problems that are complex, interdisciplinary, and economically driven.  Our program is designed by industry to meet these challenges.  Through the use of multiple delivery methods to include traditinoal graduate classes, web based, and executive modules, we have developed a program that is one of the leading edge of engineering education that meets the needs of the working professional.

 

Graduates from this program will be prepared to work effectively at the interface between engineering and management and to assume professional positions of increasing responsibility. The six core courses for this program are:

Students lacking a strong quantitative background that includes and introduction to calculus and statistics may be required to take several ramp courses as defined by the admission conditions listed in the acceptance letter.

 

Students are encouraged to take an integrated four-course sequence leading to a graduate certificate for the four advisor approved electives or four additional courses in Systems Engineering, Engineering Management, or Enterprise Systems. Most of these certificates are offered online via web-based instruction. Approved four-course sequences include:

A faculty advisor must approve other options.
