Master of Engineering Management

Director: G. Weber

Lecturer:  B. Colburn

Gonzaga University's School of Engineering and Applied Science (SEAS) offers a fully online Master of Engineering Management (MEM) degree for professionals involved in managing engineering technologies. The three-fold goals of the program are to:  1) Provide skills necessary to manage continually evolving technologies, 2) Develop a foundation for making strategic engineering decisions, and 3) Provide skills required to advance in project/product/process management positions. Courses are offered online over an eight-week period. Students may register and take courses asynchronously from anywhere in the world.

Admissions

1. Students applying to Gonzaga University must submit Gonzaga’s Graduate Application, which can be accessed online at 
   https://www.gonzaga.edu/gradapply. 
2. Along with the application for graduate study, each program at Gonzaga has distinct admission requirements. Please refer to the table below to view that detailed information.

Required Qualifications:

Applicants should have a Bachelor of Science degree in a STEM field, such as:

• Engineering field, i.e. Biomedical, Civil, Computer, Electrical, Mechanical, etc.
• Mathematics
• Chemistry, Biology, or Biochemistry
• Computer Science
• Physics

Program prerequisites are:

• Calculus I, II & III
• Ordinary differential equations
• One lab science in Chemistry, Biology, Biochemistry, or Physics

Prerequisite course credits are not counted toward the graduate degree program credits. They must be taken in addition to the 30 credits required for the MEM degree.

Any applicants with a non-STEM degree should discuss prerequisite courses with the Admissions Specialist.

Degree Requirements:

To complete the MEM degree program, thirty credit hours of courses are required beyond the pre-requisite courses. Students are expected to maintain a minimum grade point average of 3.00. Degree requirements consist of 12 credit hours of core courses and 18 hours of graduate-level electives. Upon approval by the program director, one 400-level undergraduate engineering course may be accepted as a technical elective if it does not replicate a course in the candidate’s undergraduate degree.
