Master of Science in Engineering Management

The interdisciplinary Master of Science in Engineering Management is hosted by the College of Engineering in collaboration with the Fox School of Business and Management. The degree program is designed as a career development option for students interested in technology-based ventures who desire to learn specific management techniques associated with the management of technology development and technology-based projects or the introduction of new technologies into existing organizations. Students who complete the M.S. in Engineering Management learn many of the skills and approaches necessary to increase the productivity and innovative capacity of technology-driven organizations. They are exposed to aspects of management education, such as project management, IP strategy, and quality management, to which they may not have previously been exposed. As a student in the Engineering Management MS, you will benefit from a focused curriculum that presents business knowledge within the context of firsthand engineering projects and prototypes. The program will prepare you to account for market and commercial factors within the product development process, incorporate customer patterns into product design, manage engineering projects, and understand the elements and functions of a financial report. Graduates gain a thorough understanding of how to effectively lead organizations and integrate business priorities with the requirements of technological product development. You will learn how the success or failure of an engineering project can impact the bottom line. In addition, you will demonstrate your management ability and gain hands-on experience by completing a capstone project in which you find a solution to a real-life industry problem.
