COURSE DESCRIPTION
Course summary
The Master of Engineering (Management) is a professional degree for engineers who see their careers progressing into management—including senior management positions. The program provides a strong grounding in some of the most modern management thinking applicable to engineering industries.
You will work in teams on applied practical projects and case studies, and broaden their skills base with subjects from other disciplines including finance, human resources and marketing.
This degree
The Master of Engineering delivers expert skills and applied competencies required for the professional engineer. It is designed to train and enhance professional practice, advance technical and specialist skills, and provide an opportunity to put theory into practice with applied projects and research. The degree also delivers communication, strategic and project management skills essential to the practising engineer.
The degree is offered in conjunction with the Sydney Business School University of Wollongong, to ensure the most modern management thinking accompanies the professional, technical and environmental aspects of engineering projects.
