Information About The Program
"Engineering Management is a discipline for taking and implementing the most appropriate decisions in the management of existing and emerging technologies and related systems. It deals with issues at both strategic and operational levels."
Engineering Management is to organize, plan, manage and control the activities of engineers, scientists, designers and other technical and non-technical personnel to achieve the desired objectives in the design, manufacture, construction, operation or maintenance of a product, device, structure or machine.
The difference of the engineering management programs from the MBA programs is to provide the engineers with the knowledge and skills to use these qualities more effectively and efficiently without removing them from their existing technical knowledge and skills.
Engineering Management is the management of engineering and applied sciences. Engineering Management is for engineers who are in a position to make strategic and operational decisions on existing and future technologies. Engineering Management is to improve efficiency, quality and global competitiveness, to maintain technological level, to create new business areas. Engineering Management, Industrial Engineering and Social Sciences is a discipline.
