Program Educational Objectives The OSU Engineering and Technology Management program exists to provide accessible, career-enhancing educational opportunities to practicing engineers, scientists and technical managers. The program’s learning objectives are that: 1. Each student shall be able to demonstrate the ability to view the organization systemically. 2. Each student will be able to critically analyze a management problem. 3. Each student will be able to identify and act on strategic issues. 4. Each student will be able to articulate and defend their ideas in a professional manner. Admission Requirements The guidelines for admission to the MSETM program are a bachelor’s or higher degree, in engineering or the physical/mathematical sciences, with a 3.00 GPA, and professional employment in a related technical field since graduation with a bachelor’s degree. Applicants not meeting these standards may be granted provisional admission based upon their overall academic and professional practice history and accomplishments. Since many course assignments are integrated into current issues in the work environment, students must be managing or employed in a technical organization in order to be successful in the program. For this reason, the program is not appropriate for full-time on-campus students. The MSETM student body is made up entirely of full-time employed, technical professionals who receive the courses through distance education
