Engineering professionals who want to advance further in their field may want to consider earning master's degrees, as this certification is often required for management positions. Many professionals choose to pursue online degrees in engineering management or business administration.
Given this demand, officials from Pennsylvania State University (Penn State) announced that the school will offer an online master's of engineering management degree. Engineering students in general do not learn about business in their undergraduate programs. While they can pick up some business skills through work experience, this may not be enough for them to advance their career to the management level. Penn State's engineering division has collaborated with their school of business administration and school of science, engineering and technology to create the program, which offers courses in negotiation, communication, teamwork, management, organization, problem solving and organizational learning.
