Many working engineers and technologists do not have the time to commit to a full Master's course. However, the demand for management knowledge among engineers is increasing. The Graduate Certificate in Engineering Management is designed to provide management knowledge which can be tailored by the student to fit his or her immediate needs.
The course is designed to provide practised engineers with extended knowledge beyond their first degree and to update knowledge and skills in recent advances in engineering, technology and business practice.
All the subjects in this course are taken from the Master of Engineering Management (MEM) (C04094) and may be credited towards the MEM on successful admission to that program.
An applicant should:
Applicants should have two years of relevant work experience, or one year of structured industrial experience equivalent to that required for the Bachelor of Engineering degree at UTS, and must submit a covering letter indicating why they wish to undertake the course and a detailed curriculum vitae.
The course can be completed in one semester of full-time study or one year of part-time study.
Subjects may be taken in the evening or by distance mode.
Students complete 24 credit points of study. A minimum of 18 credit points comes from the core of the Master of Engineering Management and the remainder from core or elective subjects. Elective subjects are to be chosen from postgraduate subjects offered within the Faculty of Engineering.
