Florida Tech offers a master’s in engineering management for engineers seeking to enhance their technical expertise and lead dynamic work teams. This degree gives individuals a unique blend of engineering and business expertise, preparing them with the leadership skills they need to oversee complex technical projects.

The master’s in engineering management degree focuses on both technical learning in specific engineering disciplines and different elements of project management (such as cost schedules and delivery requirements), which supervising or lead engineers must understand to perform successfully in a corporate environment. Flexible course offerings and evening class hours make balancing professional and academic obligations more convenient.

An Interdisciplinary, Flexible Curriculum

The master’s in engineering management program is interdisciplinary in nature, allowing students to work with faculty and other grad students from a variety of engineering disciplines. Since most students are already industry professionals, the learning environment is mature, cooperative, and designed for students to work in teams to learn important business practices such as global differences in business ethics and cultural sensitivities. Students become familiar with interacting with people from various technological backgrounds—a skill greatly desired by employers.

The Master of Science in Engineering Management meets the professional needs of the engineer who, although working in a technical field, finds it necessary to update his or her skills in engineering, as well as acquire knowledge in the management of other engineers. Typically, engineers find that as they advance in their chosen fields, the challenges of management increasingly play a role in the overall responsibilities of the position. Many find their careers would best be served by a program addressing the management challenges of their job responsibilities. This interdisciplinary program is designed for those individuals.
