MSc Engineering Management
Change happens quickly in commerce and industry. If a business doesn't respond rapidly to technological innovations, scientific developments and new management practices, it won't be able to compete effectively.
On this MSc Engineering Management course, you'll develop the expertise and skills to manage technology innovation across engineering industries, helping businesses respond to rapid change.
You'll get an understanding of the role management plays in the investigation, implementation and operation of manufacturing and service systems, providing you with a broad appreciation of material resource utilisation and recovery. You'll also get the knowledge you need to bridge the 'communication gap' between engineers and managers.
There's great demand in all industries for professionals with engineering management skills and expertise. After the course, you'll be able to take on technical and management roles in various industries.
You can start this course in October (full time or part time) or February (full time only).
