Program Outline

Degree Overview:

The Master of Engineering Management (MEM) is an opportunity for engineers, technical specialists, and non-technical professionals to build and stretch their managerial skills and integrate their business and technical knowledge. The duration of this course is one and a half years; however, applicants with a recognized bachelor's degree are eligible for recognition of prior learning of up to four subjects and are thus able to complete the course in one year on a full-time basis. The MEM has been specifically designed to emphasize the interface between engineering, technology, and management. The integration of carefully tailored coursework and an independent project delivers graduates who understand the professional, societal, and environmental context and have developed a range of management and engineering capabilities to respond to it.
