Systems engineering and management education is an essential ingredient in today's high-tech industries. Our industry partners tell us there is a growing need for engineering and management training in complex systems that have many interdependent parts and significant organizational and/or societal impact. Increasingly, business requires that engineers be trained to be good managers and leaders. Likewise, business managers need a better understanding of technology and how to run large, multifaceted engineering projects.This industry input is one of the reasons we created the Systems Engineering and Management master's degrees and certificate programs at The University of Texas at Dallas.Recent graduates and those with work experience can benefit from pursuing these degrees and certificates as earning these credentials can help students become better prepared to succeed in target industries including aerospace, defense and space systems, transportation systems, information and communications technology systems, information assurance and cybersecurity systems, healthcare systems; energy, environment and infrastructure systems; complex biological systems; and macro-economic and financial systems.As a joint program between the Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science and the Naveen Jindal School of Management, SEM features both technical and human-centered courses. The curriculum provides students knowledge and skills to design, develop and manage complex projects requiring wide-ranging scientific and business competencies. The typical SEM student is a high performer with at least a bachelor's degree in engineering, math, physics, chemistry, economics or finance.We invite your questions about the Systems Engineering and Management degree and certificate programs.
