Executive Master of Engineering Management
The Executive Master of Engineering Management (EMEM) program is offered jointly by St. Cloud State University and Metropolitan State University in St. Paul and develops advanced leadership and management skills and expands your creativity in a team environment while strengthening connections with students, faculty, and local industry leaders.
Students learn in a program that bridges the gap between engineering and business. The EMEM program can accelerate your career and is an excellent alternative to an MBA for engineers, technologists and those with business degrees working in an engineering/technology company.
The EMEM program is available both in synchronous and asynchronous online modes and students outside Minnesota share the same tuition cost as Minnesota residents and is available as both a part-time and full-time program to domestic and international applicants meeting admission requirements with part-time day 1 CPT available for international students.
