EM is a highly relevant program which builds on the traditional roles of systems analysis and basic and applied sciences by emphasizing management functions in a technical setting. Engineering management majors will study the engineering relationships among the management tasks of staffing, organizing, planning, financing and the human element in production, research, engineering, and service organizations. By emphasizing leadership in a technical setting, the program builds on the traditional roles of the basic and applied sciences for engineering and technology management. Engineering managers must understand the interaction of organizational, technical, and behavioral variables in order to build a productive engineering team. Majors get a technical foundation in a specific engineering field of their choice: civil, electrical, nuclear, infrastructure, environmental, software, chemical, or general engineering. The program also provides a solid base of courses in engineering economy, production operations management, supply chain engineering, quantitative business analysis, project management, and computer modeling in order to prepare graduates to lead in a technical environment.Multidisciplinary program with in-depth instruction in management science, simulation, engineering design, data analytics, and six engineering electives of choice. An excellent undergraduate program that will prepare you for a diverse array of technical and contemporary graduate programs.This major offers an honors track.
