Engineering technology management can look like a straightforward amalgamation of people and project management, save for one detail. To achieve this delicate balance of direct support and overhead execution requires the right blend of technical and leadership abilities. Any management master's degree program can teach an individual contributor to organize and lead teams and keep projects on track. Only technically focused engineering management degree programs, such as Stevens Institute of Technology's online Master of Engineering in Engineering Management (MEM) program, blend critical business fundamentals with advanced technical instruction applicable in disciplines as different as industrial engineering and chemical engineering.
