Engineering Management

Overview

Our Engineering Management course has been designed in response to the worldwide shortage of engineers with the all-round capability needed to oversee complex projects. It is a dynamic and demanding programme, combining in-depth technical knowledge with a multitude of personal attributes and business expertise. This programme is for professionals with some industrial understanding that wish to move into management roles within the engineering industry.

We are one of the very few universities in the region to offer a programme in Engineering Management and attract graduates from various engineering disciplines, bringing rich and diverse backgrounds into the classroom. The person with this role will create the ‘map’ to successfully achieve the goals of an engineering project. In addition to generic project management modules, students will study a specialised module on supply chain and logistics which will equip them to understand the operation of supply chains in an engineering enterprise and to be able to control the logistical operation. Students have an edge as the University works with companies such as Microsoft, Dell EMC, IBM, Oracle and SAP in addition to being Cisco Net Academy – meaning the student will have access to the latest equipment, and can make use of specialist teaching materials and workshops. Programme content is enriched by providing industry engagement opportunities to students through industry speakers and field trips.
