Program Introduction: The School of Management at Huazhong University of Science and Technology is one of the first units in the country to cultivate Master of Engineering Management (MEM) professionals. The program is dedicated to nurturing high-level composite talents in engineering management with a global perspective, strategic thinking, expertise in the field of engineering management, the ability to integrate engineering technology and management, a strong sense of social responsibility, and professional ethics.
Program Objectives: To establish a high-level talent hub for engineering management and a platform for high-level engineering management professionals, making the MEM program a top-tier education project in China.
Program Highlights: Integration of Management and Engineering, Intelligent Operations
l International Integration: The MEM program at Huazhong University of Science and Technology leverages the university's engineering strengths, industrial service platforms, and domestic and international cooperative resources. Focused on national strategic needs, the program innovatively combines the Master of Engineering Management degree education with the International Project Management Professional (IPMP) certification, creating an applied talent development model. The curriculum aligns with the IPMP international project management qualification certification. The school collaborates with the well-known foreign universities to offer short-term study abroad programs, providing students with an international exchange platform.
l Driven by Projects, Focused on Practical Education: 90% of the MEM program faculty have industry experience. The faculty team has undertaken several major national social science fund projects, key projects funded by the National Natural Science Foundation, and projects funded by the National Natural Science Foundation. MEM students actively participate in mentor-led research projects to cultivate practical management abilities. The "dual mentor" model runs through the entire talent development process, with multiple industry experts serving as enterprise mentors, providing various forms of collaborative education such as lectures, classroom teaching, and thesis guidance to support the enhancement of students' engineering and management skills.
