With permission of the administrator of the minor, a student can substitute other courses for the following courses. Engineering Leadership and Management
18 credit hours.
The Engineering Leadership and Management Minor provides undergraduate engineering and engineering technology majors with skills that are essential to long-term career advancement. Moreover, the carefully selected skills that comprise the minor are highly sought after by employers of our graduates. The capstone for the minor is an Engineering Leadership and Management Internship where students will put their skills to the test in real-world businesses. Students will learn how leaders deal with people and inspire others to enthusiastically and willingly achieve the vision and goals of the organization. Students will learn how leaders play a fundamental role in setting the organization’s vision and goals. As a manager students will learn how to effectively apply relevant experience, knowledge, and resources for the efficient and timely completion of operations or tasks to achieve success for the organization.
