This degree program could be completed within two years, but could also beextended over a three-year period, affording an engineer considerable flexibility inaccommodating the demands of personal life and career. The degree title—master ofprofessional engineering management—speaks to the acquisition of the professional skillsnecessary to manage and lead engineering teams and projects. The course work proposed forthis master’s program is designed to enhance an engineer’s proficiency in management andcommunication capabilities—capabilities that are absolutely essential now.The proposed master’s program is designed for those students who are already at work inprofessional practice and do not wish to disrupt their practice to return

There were 11 other articles that werepublished in journals related to STEM fields (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math), andone was published in an inter-disciplinary journal focused towards design methods. Even withinthe STEM journal publications, there seems to be a clear lack of a coherent framework for thetopic despite its clear relevance to concerns about talent management practices in the industry.On another note, abiding by the general notion of talent management, all of the 14 articlesselected for review in one way or another catered to one or more of the talent

With an annual 25+ project activity, 150+ student and 20+ faculty, many lessonshave been learned and codified in the areas of project recruitment, project scope definition andproject management. Industry praises the program as an outstanding experiential education, withbenefits for students, faculty and industry. Between 1995 and 2001, 133 projects and $2 millionin support were provided by industrial sponsors. Two thirds of the projects each program yearcome from repeat sponsors.

Only 30 students are admitted each year to the MEPP program. Togain admission, students must have earned at least a B.S. in engineering, and must have at leastfour years of applied engineering experience.The MEPP program is cohort-based; the 30 students admitted each year progress through thefixed curriculum as a stable group. This cohort-based design facilitates close relationshipsamong students [2,3
