MINOR PROGRAM IN Engıneerıng Management
Engineers often assume leadership and/or management roles after initial stages of their career to be productive in large projects with high impact.
This minor program is open to all engineering students.
Conditions of Minor Program Completion
There are a total of 6 courses in this minor program; 3 of them are mandatory, and 3 of them are elective courses. Students must take engineering economy, statistics, and management science courses to get the fundamentals of engineering management. Some of these courses may be taken as a part of the students’ major program.
In that case, those courses can be counted towards the Engineering Management minor program. The remaining three elective courses would give insight into engineering management.
