Master of Science in Engineering Management

Course Description

The Master of Science in Engineering Management program (M.S.) is designed to bring the benefits of modern technology and high quality graduate-level instruction to engineers/scientists/technologists interested in furthering their skills in engineering management with specialization in any of the following areas: * Project / Program Management, so as to become effective future project/program managers; * Enterprise Architecture education so as to become expert in technology oriented Enterprise Architectures and executing decisions in technological and scientific organizations. * Systems management expert related to the life cycle of systems including definition, development, deployment and decommissioning; * Certified Lean Six Sigma programs for improving enterprise excellence * Technology Management experts to manage and lead technology in global marketplace. These M.S. programs offer practical business perspectives necessary for engineering management. Unlike traditional MBA programs, these programs emphasize required management skills that are specifically built on the students technical backgrounds and experience. The custom-designed mix of management concepts and technical expertise will help prepare professionals to direct major public and private organizations in the increasingly complicated managerial environment of today s competitive global, technical environment. In this program, engineering management principles are broadly based and draw from many different disciplines such as: applied sciences, engineering, natural sciences, mathematics, economics, business and social sciences. Relevance to the Real World Engineering Management leadership has become a highly sought skill in today s competitive global technological marketplace. It is now a well recognized profession in most industries. Within this curriculum are the following areas of specializations: project/program management, systems engineering, technology management, and enterprise architecture. These four specializations provide a broad perspective of engineering management careers that are of current interest and need. MSENM Transition Program National University students who completed a transition program as part of their undergraduate BSITM degree and who satisfy MSENM transition program requirements described in the catalog description of various undergraduate programs must complete a minimum of 45 quarter units for their MSENM degree. The number of units required for the MSENM program is dependent on the coursework completed in the Bachelors transition program and the grades earned.
