Engineering Management (MSEM)

MSEM is a degree that bridges the gap between the fields of engineering, technology, business management, and innovation. It is a multidisciplinary field that involves the application of advanced business methods, engineering techniques, and innovative tools to design, manage, and improve complex systems and achieve organizational objectives.

MSEM is aimed at attracting ambitious engineers who aspire to obtain a senior role in their organizations in which they integrate technical and management responsibilities with innovation to support business growth and new organizational trends. It is ideal for recent graduates hoping to make their first move into engineering and innovation management, as well as established professional engineers who aspire for a higher management role and wish to extend their knowledge beyond their specific technical field.

MSEM graduates can work as engineering managers, quality managers, innovation and technology managers, project managers, operations managers, as well as in planning and strategic management to lead their organizations.
