Curriculum

Engineering coursework includes consumer-driven company design, project management strategies, systems engineering, mainframe management, and advanced innovation, as well as discipline-specific entrepreneurship coursework. Every student participates in a team-driven company design project where they simulate a startup environment to learn how a company runs and what it means to lead at top levels. Through an IEM Final Design project, our students are taught how to connect with CEOs at various Birmingham companies in a meaningful way, and they have the opportunity to gain leadership experience in their field.

The MEng with a concentration in IEM consists of 13 courses (33 credit hours).
