Even though engineers play a critical role in business success and business products, the language of engineering doesn’t always translate well into the world of business. This can be a challenge because engineering projects most often need the support of business functions—and management—to get off the drawing board.
A degree in Engineering Management combines management skills with engineering knowledge, making you uniquely suited to oversee teams of other engineers working on highly technical tasks and serve as the bridge between technical roles and management. Engineers are already among the most well-compensated professionals in the world earning an average salary of $80,673; however, those who wish to move even further up the pay scale, can opt for this degree program.
An M.Eng. in Engineering Management opens up a whole raft of new career opportunities for engineering graduates. Engineering manager jobs include roles in project management, engineering sales and marketing, and senior management positions across many different types of organizations and industries. Something to consider with this degree is you’ll likely be moving toward a more managerial role rather than an engineering.
Booming Industry Offering Endless Opportunities – Since engineering managers are involved in the financial, production and marketing activities of their firm, jobs for engineering managers exist in all the top industries including Scientific research and development services, Management of countries and enterprises, Manufacturing, Architectural, engineering, and related services and Government sector.
Highly In-Demand – Engineering Managers are not limited to technical roles in the field of engineering anymore. Because of high demands for managers with technical skills and knowledge, they can also explore fields like technical consulting, logistics, manufacturing management, operations, production, systems design, quality assurance, etc.
Earning Prospects – According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the median pay for engineering managers was $149,530 in May 2020. In addition, the top 10% earned an average salary of over $208,000. Managers working in the branch of scientific research and development tend to make $159,400 per year.
Ever-Evolving Industry – Employment of engineering managers is projected to grow 6 % from 2019 to 2029 according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, about as fast as the average for all occupations.
Professional Skills & Growth – Engineering enterprises often require different management skills than your average business. On the technical side, Masters in Engineering Management will be teaching students how to apply these business skills in an engineering setting.
