Undergraduate Program in Engineering Management

There are two options in the EngM program: B.E. degree in an engineering discipline with a minor in Engineering Management (ENGM) or a B.S. degree in engineering science with Engineering Management as their area of concentration. Additionally, courses in EngM may be approved for minor credit in several programs.

Engineering Management Minor
The ENGM minor is designed to provide a student majoring in an undergraduate engineering program with a working knowledge of the fundamentals of business and engineering management. ENGM courses include such topics as management of the high technology enterprise, engineering economics, systems and engineering, business psychology, finance, accounting, project planning and control, marketing, manufacturing, and entrepreneurship. The ENGM minor program consists of 15 hours of course work, some of which may be taken as electives associated with the student's major program. Five courses are required: four core courses and the remaining course chosen from a list of electives.

Program Requirements
Students must take the following four courses:
ENGM 221 Introduction to Engineering Management
ENGM 273 Systems Engineering
ENGM 274 Program and Project Management
ENGM 244 Applied Behavioral Science

Students must select one of the following courses:
ENGM 216 Engineering Economy or MT251 Accounting and Finance for Engineers
ENGM 242 Technology Marketing
ENGM 253 Technology-Based Entrepreneurship
ENGM 254 Production and Supply Chain Management
ENGM 275 Technology Assessment and Forecasting
CE 290: Reliability and Risk Case Studies
ENVE 296 Safety, Security, and Environmental Risk Management

Area of Concentration in Engineering Management
Students who are pursuing the B.S. degree in engineering science may select courses in management of technology to satisfy requirements for either engineering electives (12 hours) or program electives (27 hours). Courses in Engineering Management are often selected in combination with courses in economics to satisfy the program electives.

Non-ENGM Courses Satisfying ENGM Program Elective Requirement Although it is expected that most of the 27 hours of program electives for the ENGM concentration consist of ENGM courses, there are courses offered within Vanderbilt that can be used to fill disciplinary gaps or to strengthen a unique core program of study. Please contact the EngM Director of Undergradute Programs for more information.
