• Engineering Management

  Engineering Management: The Engineering Management specialization prepares engineers to lead and manage teams, projects, and organizations with technical workforces to meet strategic objectives. This specialization emphasizes applying the management function in the technological setting while recognizing engineering systems' basic and applied sciences. Students will increase their engineering and management knowledge to develop and deliver new products and services while creating value for their organization and customers.
