The engineering management program is a practice-oriented professional track master’s degree and focuses on managing technology and engineering functions. The program includes 33 SCH of coursework. Applicants should have a bachelor’s degree in engineering, science, or technology disciplines. Applicants in other degree fields with technical work experience are also encouraged to apply. A minimum GRE of 293 (Q+V) is required but may be waived for applicants with two or more years of relevant work experience and an undergraduate GPA of 3.00 or greater.
Two concentrations are available in the curriculum: Engineering Management, and Management of Technology. A Bachelor’s degree in an engineering or science discipline is the minimum qualification for admission for the former. The second concentration is less restrictive but the core courses will cover introductions to essential aspects of modern technologies, such as Microsystems, Nanotechnology, and Biotechnology.
