Minor in Engineering Management

The minor in engineering management focuses on the management of technical organizations and projects. The core courses cover entrepreneurship and the development of new technology products and projects.

The student's selection of electives are from a large list of multi-disciplinary engineering and non-engineering courses. This enables students to tailor the elective cycle to their professional development interests. The Engineering Management Program will permit reasonable latitude for students to suggest additional courses for inclusion based on stated professional development goals.

While this minor is primarily designed to provide engineering management knowledge and skills to other engineers, with the equivalent science background students from other sciences can also complete this minor.

The minor consists of a minimum of 24 credits total, with five required core courses. Students select three additional elective courses approved by the department.

Prerequisites
The common engineering core curriculum prerequisites are required of all students in the College of Engineering. Students from other colleges will need the appropriate background prerequisite courses in physics, mathematics and thermodynamics.
