PROGRAM INFORMATION: 1 & 2 YEAR OPTIONS
Two-Year Program
 Participants in the two-year program are typically employed
full-time. Students attend classes every other Friday and Saturday over the
course of four academic semesters. This format provides students with a
dedicated window of time to focus on their studies without significantly
impacting their work schedules. Most students are granted the time off
required to attend Friday classes, or utilize flex-time options to make up
for their time away from the workplace.
Friday/Saturday class sessions are not held during the summer between the
first and second year, however, students do work on the practicum, a
team-consulting project, during this period.
Students must also complete a real-world engineering management project
during their 4 semesters of study.

One-Year Program
 Participants in the one-year program are not typically employed. They are
most often international students or those who have decided to leave employment
to pursue their studies on a full-time basis.
Due to time limitations, students in the one-year program do not typically
complete a summer team-consulting project (practicum).
Students in the one-year program must also complete a real-world engineering
management project.
