ENGINEERING MANAGEMENT COURSES OFFERED IN OMAHA

Lincoln (Neb.) - Nov. 27, 2000 - The University of Nebraska-Lincoln College of Engineering and Technology will offer engineering management courses in Omaha during the spring semester. Four classes will be offered through distance education, with one offered on campus at the Peter Kiewit Institute.

The courses offered through distance education are "Industrial Quality Control," Industrial Decision Models II," "Advanced Topics Engineering Management-Value Engineering," and "Applied Physical Metallurgy and Design." The on-campus course is "Analysis of Engineering and Management I."

All of the courses apply to UNL's master of engineering degree, a professional, practice-oriented advanced degree. The program is designed for individuals who have at least one degree in engineering or significant engineering practice and a degree in a related field. The non-thesis program is geared to working professionals and allows students to develop an individual plan of study with approval by a supervisory committee. The program requires 36 semester hours of approved graduate-level courses, with at least 18 hours in an area of concentration.

Other areas of concentration are software engineering, telecommunications engineering, and construction.
