MS in Engineering Management
Degree Requirements
The MS degree requires 48 credits, including 33 credits in required core
courses and 15 graduate elective credits, of which 6 or more credits are
in a major area of interest. These electives may be taken in other colleges
at Drexel consistent with the plan of study and any required prerequisites.
Students with a particular interest in technology or management who can satisfy the prerequisite and departmental requirements are free to select any 6- to 15-credit sequence with the approval of the program director. Alternatively, students may take the balance of required elective credits from any other graduate-level course(s) in engineering, business, or another college for which they have adequate preparation and can obtain approvals from the college and the Engineering Management program.
All candidates are urged to discuss their areas of interest with the program director and to develop a proposed plan of study during the early stages of their program.
