Introduction
Advancing Leaders in Engineering Management
Rutgers Master of Business and Science (MBS) degree in Engineering Management combines advanced education in engineering management with a professionally guided business curriculum that focuses on key areas including finance and accounting, project management, marketing, leadership skills, innovation, management of science and technology, ethics and entrepreneurship.
The Engineering Management concentration equips our students to manage cross-disciplinary engineering and science-based teams, develop new products and technologies, advance innovations from concept to market, and improve organizational infrastructure.
Our graduates step confidently into today’s engineering workforce equipped not only with the innovative, cutting-edge academic knowledge but with the business skills necessary to excel in leadership roles in the ever-evolving and increasingly globalized engineering industry.
Rutgers MBS allows you to focus on your career and life
Customizable: Choose courses to fit your career goals; courses are offered online, on-campus, or a combination of both - making ours one of the most flexible STEM-based degrees in the nation.
Flexible: Complete your degree part-time or full-time, with courses offered on evenings and weekends. You can switch to part-time or full-time based on your schedule – no separate application necessary.
Executive Courses: Immersive-style courses geared toward experienced professionals interested in enhancing their scientific and business skills in a short time.
Focus on professional development: Unlike research-based master’s programs, the Rutgers MBS focuses on advancing you to your next career with internship and externship opportunities, executive coaching, career workshops, and networking events.
