Overview
A curriculum in Engineering Management leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Engineering Management is offered in cooperation with the School of Business Administration. Engineering management is a broad discipline concerned with the art and science of planning, organizing, directing, and controlling activities that have a technical component. Designing, producing, selling, and servicing products in the marketplace require managers who possess both an ability to apply engineering principles and a skill in managing technical projects and people in technical jobs. The curriculum is designed to provide a basic education in an engineering discipline with the study of management concepts and techniques. The curriculum incorporates the equivalent of one-half year of study in the area of the humanities and social sciences. Candidates for this degree must earn a minimum of 123-127 credits, depending upon the engineering option selected.
Required Social Science and Humanities: Students must select three (nine credits) from the approved Humanities courses listed in the catalogue, two (six credits) of which must also be from the University Approved Diversity courses (Category One and Two) listed in this catalogue.
