The Engineering and Technology Management (ETM) program prepares engineering and technological professionals to make process-, product-, and project-oriented strategic and operational decisions and become leaders in the management of technology by providing the link between engineering, science, and management. It helps companies, research organizations, and governments to plan, develop, and implement technologies by specifically addressing real needs identified by industry leaders. Effective planning, selection, implementation, and management of technology, and the teams involved, is essential to the success of any business in today’s complex and time-critical global markets. Students learn to apply proven evaluation concepts and implementation strategies to fast moving, technical management decisions that make the difference in both career and business success. Courses provide practicing engineers and managers of technical teams or projects with the knowledge, tools, and skills to manage projects, operations, organizations, and people. The program includes product and project management, engineering management, quality and safety management, and statistical analysis to enable the graduate to be more effective in technical managerial and leadership roles in a business environment. The program is specifically tailored for professionals who want to advance their careers while still working full time. The entire program is available through distance learning as well as face to face and involves 30 credit hours of course work

The Department of Engineering Technology offers a Master of Science degree in Engineering Technology Leadership. The program is designed to prepare manufacturing professionals to be knowledgeable about world class manufacturing systems. The program provides advanced course work in manufacturing strategies, agendas, and quality control. In addition, the program addresses principles of world class organizations and restructuring of manufacturing practices, which include, but are not limited to: simultaneous/concurrent engineering practices, just in time manufacturing, material requirements/resources planning, and product and process simplification with value analysis/value engineering. The program permits advanced course work for those persons having baccalaureate degrees in a variety of related technological fields (manufacturing, engineering, graphic communication, business, construction, and production are a few examples). For those persons actively engaged in manufacturing production management positions, this program offers an opportunity to research technical and scientific developments in advanced manufacturing systems. Other professionals who find it necessary to develop technical knowledge and skills from disciplines as diverse as computer science, industrial engineering, and business administration can benefit from the program .The program enables the University to assist individuals in industry who wish to advance into positions of increased responsibility in the area of manufacturing systems. The program permits those in industry to keep abreast of changes in technology and enables those with a technical background to have manufacturing experience at the graduate level prior to, or while, being employed full time.

The Master of Science in Engineering may be characterized as being both career-oriented and flexible. Program plans and options are available to accommodate the needs of nearly every engineering graduate student. Graduate students enrolled in any of the engineering graduate programs must complete:

• 30 semester hours for the thesis plan,
• 33 semester hours for the nonthesis plan, or
• 36 semester hours for the management plan.

The degree requirements consist of core courses, technical courses, and project courses. The management plan also requires a series of business courses. These degree programs are designed to provide graduate students with the knowledge and skills to excel in professional careers and/or pursue a PhD or doctorate degree in engineering. To obtain a list of core and technical course requirements for a particular engineering discipline, students should contact the option coordinator for the program of interest.

The Master of Science in Engineering Management (MSEM) degree program combines advanced course work in highly-specialized technical fields with a professional education in contemporary business, entrepreneurship, and management practices. Graduates of the program will be provided with the educational background to pursue professional management roles in industry.

The Master of Science in Engineering Management degree blends traditional business topics with technical coursework in engineering.

Toss in the sponsored real-world work experience, and you will have an unmatched opportunity to gain management expertise and master the tools needed to succeed at the next level.

Ocean engineers study the world’s ocean environment, using engineering expertise to analyze its effects on vessels and structures. They are involved in deep-sea exploration and projects such as designing and operating platforms or sub-surface vehicles.

A master’s in ocean engineering from Florida Tech provides students a multidisciplinary, hands-on program oriented toward the needs of industry. With its emphasis on basic engineering sciences, design, and modern engineering tools and methods, ours is one of the only graduate programs in the country that offers training in ocean engineering, naval architecture, oceanography, meteorology, environmental science, and marine biology.

Through hands-on fieldwork, students apply their understanding of civil, mechanical, electrical, and computer engineering to design and build solutions for complex marine environments.

The MEng in Engineering, Railway Engineering Concentration is a professionally-oriented degree program for students whose primary intent is a career in industry or government. This degree differs from the Master of Science degree in that it is a terminal degree and not a pathway to a doctoral program. Other concentrations under the MEng in Engineering major include Aerospace Systems Engineering, Autonomy and Robotics, Energy Systems, and Plasma Engineering.

Upon completing the MHCIHF degree, students will be able to:

1. Have a clear understanding of the fundamental concepts in human factors and engineering psychology.
2. Have a clear understanding of human cognitive functions and limitations, and how those impact the design of systems.
3. Specify the design of an engineering human computer system so that it supports human capabilities.
4. Analyze critically and evaluate one’s own findings and those of others.
5. Communicate effectively ideas, methodologies, analyses, and interpretations of the research topic.
