The Master’s in Engineering Management is certified by the American Society for Engineering Management (ASEM), one of just six graduate programs in the United States to receive this distinction. The certification permits graduates to bypass the examination for the Professional Engineering Manager (PEM), allowing them to receive the advantage of this credentialing automatically.
