  • Online M.S. in Engineering Management Program

     

    Required Core Courses:

    1. EMGT 6980. Industrial and Technology Management Seminars.(1) (EMGT students must have 3 credits in this course.)
    2. Three courses from among the following:
      • EMGT6142 Quality and Manufacturing Management (3)
      • EMGT6901 Advanced Project Management (3)
      • EMGT6902 Legal Issues in Engineering Management (3)
      • EMGT6904 Product and Process Design (3)
      • EMGT6906 Processing Systems Simulation (3)
      • EMGT6950 Engineering Systems Integration (3)
      • EMGT6955 Systems Reliability Engineering (3)
      • EMGT6985 Engineering Management Project (3)
    3. Two courses from among the following:

    • EMGT6090 Engineering Decision Analysis (3)
    • EMGT6090 Techniques and Intelligent Tools for Engineering Decision Support (3)
    • EMGT6090 Logistics Engineering and Management (3)

    Graduate courses from other programs may be taken as elective courses for the engineering management degree with approval of the program director. Students are responsible for fulfilling the prerequisites of the courses they plan to take from other graduate programs.

    * For the new online program, students are allowed to replace the required EMGT seminar course and MBAD courses with the available EMGT online courses.

    • * For the on campus EMGT courses, each lecture course is offered through the combination of classroom lectures and discussions along with online lectures and discussions.
