Typical Program—M.E.M. Only
The following is the typical program for a student with an ABET-accredited* B.S. degree in engineering or its equivalent from a school other than Dartmouth. Students who do not hold an accredited degree may be required to take additional courses.
Fall
- ENGM 178: Technology Assessment
- ENGM 181: Marketing
- ENGM 184: Introduction to Optimization Methods
- ENGM 387: M.E.M. Professional Skills
Winter
- ENGS 93: Statistical Methods in Engineering
- ENGM 179: Financial and Managerial Accounting
- M.E.M. free elective
Spring
Summer
- ENGG 390: M.E.M. Project/Internship (Typically the project is accomplished within the context of an industry internship with the final presentation given in the fall term.)
Fall
- ENGG 177: Decision-Making Under Risk and Uncertainty
- Engineering management elective
- M.E.M. free elective

Typical Program—Combined B.E./M.E.M.
Dartmouth A.B. graduates who majored in Engineering Sciences will normally complete the B.E. degree before completing the M.E.M. degree and may be able to complete the 3 degrees in about 6 years. Since some M.E.M. courses can be taken during A.B. and B.E. years, Dartmouth students typically complete the M.E.M. degree with 13 courses beyond the B.E. degree and in less than 5 terms (assuming ENGS 93 is part of their B.E. program). During the A.B. years, students should take 2 engineering sciences electives beyond what is required for the major in order to advance their B.E. degree completion timetable.
Consult your B.E. faculty advisor or Professors Graves or Borsuk for more information.
