Engineering Management Masters


Program Director
Kathryn Abel

A Masters (ME) degree in Engineering Management builds upon undergraduate engineering and science education with studies in business, management, and Systems Engineering. The traditional engineer and scientist often lacks a formal education in the human, financial, and management skills necessary to advocate the use of technology for high quality, cost efficient, complex systems. Our Master’s degree is unique in that we strive to create an engineer who is well prepared for a future in the management of engineering and technology integration.

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. This program has a core of six required courses and four electives.

Required: EM 600, EM 605, EM 612, SYS 611, SYS 625, EM 680. (Students with a course in engineering economics can substitute EM 620 for EM 600 with advisor approval).

For the four electives, choose any SYS or EM elective from the following table, or select courses towards any of the graduate certificates listed below. Be sure to get your electives approved by your advisor on your study plan. Students wishing to take SYS800 or EM800 must see professor.

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 (SYS) or Engineering Management (EM).  Approved four-course graduate certificate sequences are listed below.
