Online Master of Engineering – Engineering Management Emphasis

There’s high demand for technically skilled engineers who have the business acumen and leadership capabilities to manage effective teams. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) projects 6% job growth for engineering managers from 2023 to 2033, which is faster than average for all occupations. In 2024, engineering managers earned a median salary of $167,740, outpacing earnings for major engineering job categories.

This program is built for working professionals who want to expand their role and make a broader organizational impact. The curriculum advances your technical and leadership skills, providing the tools to increase your strategic value and earning potential.

Engineering and technology leadership roles span industries. To tailor your path, you’ll choose courses that align with your career goals. You also have the opportunity to earn ASU’s online graduate certificate in Lean Six Sigma Black Belt while completing your degree. This added credential can give you a competitive edge when pursuing management positions.

The knowledge and skills you'll develop

In this hands-on engineering management emphasis, you’ll gain applied skills you can use in any management role, including risk management, Six Sigma and technology leadership.

Courses also expand your technical expertise in:

  • Experiment design and execution
  • Project and quality management
  • Software quality assurance
  • Statistical learning
  • Supply chain modeling

By graduation, you’ll be equipped to streamline operations, improve processes and lead high-performing teams. You’ll show impact by making data-informed decisions and guiding projects from start to finish.

What is a degree emphasis? Is it the same as a concentration?

A degree emphasis is similar to a concentration, but there are key differences.

  • A concentration is a formalized selection of courses within a major. A concentration requires a minimum of 15 credit hours of which at least nine credit hours must be upper division. Your concentration appears on both your ASU diploma and your transcripts.
  • An emphasis is a selected topic area defined within the major. It’s typically 9–12 credit hours and doesn’t need to be officially declared. The emphasis will not appear on your diploma or transcripts.
