Engineering Management Curriculum Overview

Designed for the engineer and technical manager who needs a broader education to keep an organization operating efficiently and working ahead of its competitors, the Master of Engineering (M.Eng.) in engineering management provides students with a strong understanding of the technology involved in engineering projects and the management process through which the technology is applied. Graduates from the program are prepared to work effectively at the interface of engineering and management, and assume professional positions of increasing responsibility across a broad range of industries, such as: healthcare, technology, finance, business and software systems.

The master’s degree requires ten (10) courses (30 credits); six (6) core required courses and four (4) elective courses. All elective courses must be approved by a faculty advisor. Students are also encouraged to select electives that lead to graduating with one of the many graduate certificates offered by the School of Systems and Enterprises.
