Master of Science in Engineering Management

The Master of Science in Engineering Management at A'Sharqiyah University links engineering with management and is intended for engineers who expect to lead in technical and business settings. It offers a technical route for graduates who might otherwise consider a business master's such as the MBA. Coursework spans the management of technology, developing products and processes, and quality control, plus organisational behaviour, operations, marketing, finance and engineering contracts. The 36 credit hours are made up of compulsory courses of three credits each, including systems engineering, project and programme management, project cost and quality management, and research, and can be completed in two years. The programme is taught jointly by the university's engineering faculty and staff of George Washington University's engineering and systems engineering department in the United States. Its courses count towards that university's master's degree in engineering management and run in a blended format.
