Master of Science - Engineering Management

The global demand for postgraduate engineers with management expertise has grown rapidly. This MSc Engineering Management course provides an alternative to traditional management or MBA degrees. It is primarily aimed at science and technology graduates who want to develop advanced skills and pursue a management career in engineering, manufacturing or commercial enterprise. Besides, it is also well-suited to experienced engineers looking for professional recognition and further academic knowledge.

This course supports the progression of engineers of all disciplines to management roles in both private and public sectors. The department's work promotes the importance of entrepreneurship, intrapreneurship, and the core values of ethical enterprise in modern economies.

The students will study at Greenwich's Medway Campus in Kent and benefit from the world-class specialist and integrated engineering laboratories. Core lectures are delivered by members of the School of Engineering who are specialists in their respective fields. Guest speakers from industrialists or renowned researchers are often included to bring additional perspectives from industry or research and keep learners updated with the latest international standards in their discipline.

Greenwich uses different teaching approaches to give students a varied experience. This includes lectures, interactive paper-led discussions and exercises to encourage creative thinking. The taught modules are informed by research and the theory of each topic is accompanied by practical elements covering paper-based, computer-based and hands-on building type challenges.

This Engineering Management programme is designed to give students the space for exploratory and independent study. They'll work towards individual and group assignments and undertake the preparation or follow-up work associated with lectures, seminars, integrative assignments and laboratory classes. Moreover, learners can take advantage of a range of extra-curricular opportunities available within the university and elsewhere.

Graduates for this course can pursue management careers in the public and private sectors, including technology, engineering design and product development, manufacturing production and supply chain (particularly in the field of engineering management). The course is also aimed at experienced industry practitioners who wish to assimilate their experience with academic knowledge and obtain professional recognition in key management areas of private industry or the public sector.
