Program Description

The curriculum is innovative and rigorous, and delivered live via interactive webcasts both on campus and globally through internet streaming; students are encouraged to participate during the live course lectures, with accommodations available when work or personal schedules do not permit in class participation. The graduate program is designed to build on a student’s bachelor’s degree and technical background, exposing them to the latest methods, tools, and research to expand their career options. Students have the ability to select their degree option depending on their personal interest and career objective, from either a course-based option or course and research option; see Program Requirements for further details.

Program Information & Policies

In addition to the general requirements for the Master of Science degree, MSEM (both Independent Study and Thesis options) students need to form a three-member committee that is composed of at least two New Mexico Tech management faculty members and one other qualified individual with knowledge of the student’s research project. Examples of qualified individuals include faculty members at New Mexico Tech, faculty members at other higher-education institutions, workplace supervisors, and/or professional peers with a master’s or doctoral degree. The student should identify a committee chair, who usually also serves as the student’s research advisor. The primary role of the committee is to assist the student in course selection and advise and approve the final independent study project or thesis.
