Interdisciplinary Courses and Curriculum

The core of the Master of Engineering Management program consists of four engineering management courses developed in conjunction with the Duke School of Law and the Fuqua School of Business. A required internship accompanied by a written project summary and oral presentation insures students have work experience, while four graduate level technical courses of the student's choosing serve to extend the student's science and engineering background.

To receive a Master's degree in Engineering Management, the student must complete:

• Four core management courses
• Four technical elective courses
• Summer internship, written project summary, oral presentation
• MEM Seminar Series and MEM Workshop Series

Example Curriculum:

The program can be completed in as little as one year. The internship is typically completed during the summer either before or after beginning the program.

Duke's official schedule of courses to be offered in summer, fall and spring terms is available online. 

Duke students from other departments can sometimes register for MEM courses.
