Master in Engineering Management

School of Systems and Enterprises

A ME degree in Engineering Management builds upon undergraduate engineering and science education with studies in business, management, and SE. The traditional engineer and scientist often lacks a formal education in the human, financial, and management skills necessary to advocate the use of technology for high quality, cost efficient, complex systems. Our Master’s degree is unique in that we strive to create an engineer who is well prepared for a future in the management of engineering and technology integration. Graduates from this program will be prepared to work effectively at the interface between engineering and management and to assume professional positions of increasing responsibility.

The Master in Engineering Management requires 30 graduate credits in an approved plan of study. Credits can be obtained by performing research in the form of a master’s thesis. All courses listed below are for 3 credits unless otherwise noted. The program consists of ten courses (six core and four advisor directed electives).

The six core courses for this program are:

• EM 600 Engineering Economics and Cost Analysis or
  • EM 620 Engineering Cost Management ¹
    
• EM 605 Elements of Operations Research
• SYS/SDOE 611 Modeling and Simulation
• EM/SDOE 612 Project Management of Complex Systems
• SYS/SDOE 625 Fundamentals of Systems Engineering
• EM/SDOE 680 Designing and Managing the Development System
  

[1] Recommended for students who have an undergraduate class in engineering economics.

Students are encouraged to take an integrated four-course sequence leading to a graduate certificate for the four advisor approved electives or four additional courses in SE, EM, or ES. Most of these certificates are offered on-line via web-based instruction. Approved four-course sequences include:

• Agile Systems and Enterprises,
• Construction Management,
• Enterprise Architecture and Governance,
• Financial Engineering,
• Logistics and Supply Chain Analysis
• Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Practices,
• Project Management,
• Systems Engineering and Architecting,
• Systems Engineering Management, or
• Systems and Supportability Engineering.

Three courses from the chosen certificate may be taken via Stevens online WebCampus or at the local university before the student comes to the Stevens campus.
