Students are taught about technological trends, thehistorical evolution and development of technology, and how they can spot future trends thatcould be either opportunities or threats for their own businesses and careers.4.

exercise, with curriculumbeing designed to minimise competition with other regional Higher Education Institutions(HEIs). Courses are often planned to attract students who are ‘initiative-’ or ‘technology-aware’ (for example, the recent explosion of courses in Internet Engineering). It is bothdifficult and resource intensive to maintain meaningful advisory relationships with a broadrange of current engineering practitioners. Therefore many HEIs prefer to simply consult aselect band of industrially-based departmental friends when proposals are all but complete.One should therefore not be surprised that our curriculum is not always ideally suited to thecomplexities of the current industrial environment.The University’s PerspectiveThroughout the rapid

Yet, theengineering education that most get is generally lacking in any component that educatesthem in how to deal with management issues. Industry is often looking to hire engineersfor its supervisory and management ranks, primarily because the businesses they are in,such as manufacturing, utilities, and transportation, are technologically-based, and theyneed to have managers who understand enough about technology to learn and understandtheir specific businesses. While engineering graduates are the best suited for that, they donot have the education in business and management, particularly in communications andpeople skills

Engineering Management TodayDefining Engineering Management: Engineering Management as a discipline is not tightlydefined, as demonstrated by a relatively wide variance among academic EM programs. Thediscipline is often grouped with Industrial Engineering, Systems Engineering, or Management ofTechnology. Although very few EM definitions exist, current discipline trends are representedby the following:  Engineering Management is the art and science of planning, organizing, allocating resources, and directing and controlling activities which have a technological component.2  Engineering Management is

As the value of theseprograms became apparent, their number began to increase rapidly.Engineering Management, as a discipline, evolved from the need to provide a link between themanagers and engineers of all types. A quick review of master program descriptions describesEM programs as providing a strong engineering core with additional studies in management,technology and business related courses. Hicks et. al.2 classified Engineering Managementmasters programs into three groups. One group focused on traditional management concepts suchas planning, marketing, accounting, etc. The second group focused on mathematical conceptsincluding operations research, probabilistic models, and risk/decision analysis, etc. and the thirdone focused on
