Master of Engineering Management
Curtin University
Type of institution: University/Higher Education Institution
Level: Postgraduate
CRICOS: 00301J
An engineering management role is the long-term function of many practising engineers. The need for engineering oriented management skills increases with career development. Many graduate engineers have received only an introduction to management topics at first degree level, some may have had none at all. Undergraduate management training provides a base, with an enhancement of management skills achieved by further post-graduate advanced study. The Master of Engineering Management program provides a balance between engineering and business skills and is jointly taught by staff from the School of Civil and Mechanical Engineering and the Faculty of Business and Law in a format that integrates the functions and skills needed by engineers in management. The engineer in a managerial role in industry has to utilise a broad range of skills and competencies which are essential to the planning, coordination and control of engineering projects, contracts and plant. Curtin Universitys Master of Engineering Management provides an ideal pathway for practising engineers into senior-management roles.

Standard entry requirements
Applicants for a Master Degree (Coursework) are required to meet University academic and English language entry standards: details are provided at http://study.curtin.edu.au/. Subject to the duration of the course applicants usually require a Bachelor Degree or equivalent (and may require relevant work experience), Bachelor Honours Degree, Graduate Certificate or Graduate Diploma. Any specific course entry and completion requirements must also be met. All Curtin courses have compulsory and other core capabilities that are essential for demonstrating the achievement of course learning outcomes and graduation. Students who are unable to meet or demonstrate those requirements, now or in later stages during their studies, may seek reasonable adjustments by the University wherever possible to facilitate alternative ways of achieving those requirements. If reasonable adjustments cannot be accommodated, Curtin will discuss study options to find an alternative course of study or an exit degree. Any specific course entry and completion requirements must also be met.
Study pathways
Applications for credit towards a course are assessed on an individual basis. Credit reduces the amount of learning required to complete the course and may be granted for formal education qualifications, non-formal learning from non-award programs of study and informal learning through work experiences. Further information can be found at http://futurestudents.curtin.edu.au. A student may, under specific circumstances, receive a waiver for a basic unit. In this case the student must substitute an alternative unit approved by the Head of Department. Equivalent units from other institutions may be acceptable if approved by the Head of Department or Course Coordinator.
