C04274v1 Master of Engineering Management Master of Business Administration
University of Technology Sydney
About
This course has been developed by the Faculty of Engineering and Information Technology and the UTS Business School to provide professional engineers with the advantages of a generalist Master of Business Administration alongside a focused program in engineering management.
The course follows an integrated approach to professional practice through engineering management/professional engineering subjects, business administration subjects, and an independent project in engineering management.The program allows students to complete the Master of Engineering Management and Master of Business Administration in two years of full-time study.
Structure
Students are required to complete 96 credit points, comprising 48 credit points in engineering management and 48 credit points in business administration. The project component consists of a preparatory subject and a project (in engineering management) which must be undertaken in successive sessions, typically the final two sessions of the course.
In order to receive the two qualifications within two years, students are required to remain enrolled in the course for the entire two years of full-time study. Students cannot exit the course after one year with a Master of Engineering Management, nor complete the Master of Engineering Management (C04275) (totalling 72 credit points) and expect to complete 24 credit points in this course to receive a Master of Business Administration.
