Engineering Management, B.S.

Print Degree Planner (opens a new window) |

The Engineering Management program combines core courses in both engineering and management fields with advanced business courses to provide graduates the ability to design, improve, and solve problems in organizations that create and deliver value to customers. Engineering Management majors begin their studies in an engineering discipline, developing the fundamental analysis, critical thinking, and creative problem-solving skills traditionally associated with engineering. The students in this major will then take advanced business courses to integrate business processes using various business management principles within an engineering context.

Degree Requirements

Institutional Degree Requirements

Program-Specific Degree Requirements: To be eligible for graduation, students majoring in Engineering Management must complete a minimum of 126 credits of which 52 credits must be from non-business courses, earn a grade of 2.0 or higher in every course in the Engineering Component and maintain a 2.0 average in the General Business Component, and maintain a 2.0 average in the Engineering Management Component. Students must also earn a 2.0 or higher in their senior capstone course, BUS 495 .
