Master of Science in Engineering

Course Description

A Master of Science in Engineering Management (MSEM) is a graduate degree program that focuses on the application of engineering principles to the management of complex systems and organizations. The program aims to develop professionals who are well-versed in both technical and managerial aspects of engineering, and who can lead interdisciplinary teams to solve complex engineering problems in a business setting.

Typically, an MSEM program covers a wide range of topics, including project management, financial management, operations management, supply chain management, organizational behavior, and strategic planning. Students in the program also develop technical skills in areas such as data analysis, decision making, and risk management.

An MSEM degree is designed for engineers who want to advance their careers into leadership or management roles. Graduates of the program can pursue careers in a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, construction, energy, aerospace, defense, and technology.

The curriculum of an MSEM program may vary from institution to institution, but it typically requires completion of a certain number of courses, a research project or thesis, and often an internship or co-op experience. Some MSEM programs may also be offered online to accommodate the schedules of working professionals.
