MSc in Engineering Management

Overview

The Master of Science in Engineering Management (Laurea Magistrale in Ingegneria Gestionale) with its three specialisations: Project Management; Logistics, TQM and Supply Chain Management and Sustainability and Energy Management, has been designed by the International Telematic University UNINETTUNO to provide the necessary knowledge and expertise to senior managers and leaders of the engineering sector.

The aim of this programme is to provide students with a sound understanding of complex engineering systems across the world focusing on different management systems. The emphasis is on engineering management in an international and local setting and the programme draws on an emerging body of knowledge and evidence to allow comparisons across different countries. During the course, students can choose to specialise in one of the three specialisations on offer.

What will you experience?

The course aims to develop the ability to think analytically and handle the management and development issues faced by senior and mid- level engineers and managers. These include structure and organisation, planning and managing resources, reviewing and evaluating services and understanding the local / national and international context of a management system.

The course is delivered in blended mode (on campus and online) with full access to state-of-the art facilities. Students will also have additional access to course and reading materials via the UNINETTUNO platform.

Who should take this programme?

This course is designed for engineering professionals or graduates with engineering management experience who are looking to move into senior and top management roles in the industry. The programme is set primarily within the context of engineering services, but it is also relevant for managers of enterprises, international organisations and private businesses.

It is expected that students will be able to draw on their own knowledge of engineering management in classwork and assignments, and applicants without any engineering or management experience will usually be expected to gain such experience before starting the programme.

Why study this programme?

This course explores the field of engineering with a strong focus on management at all levels. With three specialisations which each focus on a different area of engineering management, you can tailor your education to gain the specific knowledge and skills required to further your career. This course also provides you with the confidence to tackle challenges faced by senior-level engineers and managers within the field, allowing you to overcome any hurdles you face in your career.
