Overview

This combined graduate program, offered jointly by the Alberta School of Business and the Faculty of Engineering's Department of Mechanical 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 mechanical engineering or engineering management. The program is course based and delivered on campus.
