Program details

Overview

This combined graduate program, offered jointly by the Alberta School of Business and the Faculty of Engineering's Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, leads to both a Master of Business Administration and a Master of Engineering. Students complete both degrees in two calendar years of full-time study. Only applicants with an undergraduate degree in engineering are admissible. Coursework draws on the standard MBA curriculum together with graduate courses in electrical and computer engineering. The program is course based and delivered on campus. Students already holding a master's degree in electrical and computer engineering or a related discipline are only eligible for the PhD program rather than this combined degree, and those with a doctoral degree in the field are ineligible. It suits electrical or computer engineering graduates who want formal business management training alongside advanced technical study, for careers combining engineering practice with management responsibilities in technology, telecommunications, or related industries.
