About Master of Science - Engineering Management (H1N171)
Program Description
This course is designed for both recent graduates hoping to make their first move into engineering management and for established professional engineers who wish to work in a management role and need to extend their knowledge beyond their technical field into management and business.
Linking business knowledge with engineering and sustainable development issues, this course emphasises key areas of modern management required by engineers and develops students' skills in project management, information systems management and people management.
Students will choose from a range of optional modules, which offer opportunities for technical advancement in areas such as mechanical engineering, sustainability, and computer networks and e-commerce systems. De Montfort University's technicians and academics will support students in their individual project – a substantial piece of work in their final semester that will link their technical specialism with core aspects of management.
Students will be taught by expert research and teaching staff from across the university, including from the School of Engineering and Sustainable Development and Leicester Castle Business School, reflecting the multidisciplinary nature of the course.
The broad and challenging content will help equip students with the knowledge needed to work in management positions within engineering companies and in technical roles in business settings. De Montfort University's graduates are working for companies including Rolls-Royce, Network Rail and Airbus UK.
Key features:
- This course is accredited by the IET* to CEng level, offering a streamlined route to professional registration.
- Students will learn best practice from professionals by working on real-world engineering management problems with industry managers and engineers. Students will also gain industry insights from guest lectures delivered by practitioners throughout the course.
- Students will benefit from the academic expertise of De Montfort University's experienced teaching and research staff, including those from De Montfort University's dedicated Institute of Energy and Sustainable Development, which has three thematic areas of expertise – low-carbon energy systems and infrastructure, sustainable communities and sustainable living, and solutions for the base of the pyramid population.
- Students will develop their skills in De Montfort University's dedicated facilities, which include an energy laboratory, electrical and electronic experimental facilities, mechanical engineering laboratories and a CAD design suite.
- Students will boost career prospects through an optional one-year placement** where they can gain industrial experience in their area of interest. Previous Engineering Management students have landed roles with Caterpillar, Network Rail and Siemens.
- Students will meet like-minded people and get hands-on engineering experience by joining De Montfort University's student societies, including De Montfort University Racing, where students design and build a car to race at Silverstone.
