Today's
graduates aspiring to assume managerial and leadership positions in high tech
firms and research institutions must be knowledgeable in both the engineering
and managerial dimensions of the position. In recognition of this growing
reality, UT-Dallas offers a blend of courses allowing students to earn a
combination of master's level degrees in both engineering and management.
Specifically, graduates of this program will qualify to earn an M.S.E.E. degree
in combination with an MBA, an M.S. or an M.A. degree in Management.
The
combination of master's level degrees in both engineering and management are
jointly administered by the faculty members in the Department of Electrical
Engineering in the Erik Jonsson School of Engineering
and Computer Science and the School of Management.
The

For this program of studies, the School of Management will accept a competitive
GRE performance in lieu of the GMAT.
The
combination of M.S.E.E. and MBA degrees can be earned by completing a minimum
of 68 graduate hours beyond prerequisite courses. This includes a minimum of 24
hours of approved electrical engineering courses in combination with a minimum
of 44hours of approved management courses.

The
combination of M.S.E.E. and M.S. or M.A. degrees can be earned by completing a
minimum of 51 credit hours beyond prerequisites. This includes a minimum of
24hours of approved electrical engineering courses in combination with a
minimum of 27hours of approved management courses for each of these management

All
students must have a graduate advisor in the electrical engineering department
and a graduate advisor in the management school who
will advise on respective programs and approve a degree plan. The advising
office in each school will provide a detailed listing of approved courses.
Courses taken without advisor approval may not count toward the required credit
hours. No degree will be awarded until the completion of all requirements,
including the requirement for the 68 or 51 credit hours for the M.S.E.E./MBA or
M.S.E.E./M.S. or M.A. combinations respectively. If a
student chooses at a later time to pursue only one of the two degree programs,
the student MUST again seek admission into the degree program of the student's
choice and satisfy the requirements of that degree program. Prior coursework
relevant to the specific degree program will be transferred, provided the
course requirements have not changed.
