Throughout the M.S. in Engineering Management program, emphasis is placed on team-based approaches, written and oral communications skills, management of technology and continuous improvement. Our curriculum is designed to make its graduates sensitive to customer needs and to changes in business and industry and government. The required 33 hours of coursework are divided into three areas: Core Courses (18 hours), Elective Courses (12 hours) and the Field Project (3 hours). The elective course work allows students to concentrate in one of the following areas – Project Management, Consulting Engineering Services, Manufacturing / Process Industry, Systems, Telecom. / IT and Construction / Architectural -- that mirror the principal professional areas from which EMGT students come. Engineering Management is flexible with respect to student’s choice of electives and encourages students to select courses that really meet their needs. Our students have chosen technical courses from Business Administration, Public Administration, Engineering and Computer Science programs.
The concluding Case Studies and Field Project courses encourage practical, integrated application of concepts drawn from students’ studies.
