正品蓝导航 Lyle’s Operations Research and Engineering Management department has received a highly prestigious international certification by the American Society for Engineering Management, a testament to Lyle’s commitment to leadership, research, and academic excellence.
The American Society for Engineering Management awards professional certification to post-graduates and industry professionals in the field of engineering management. To receive certification, an individual must demonstrate sufficient proficiency, education, and experience in technical management.
Following a successful external review, the Master of Science in Engineering Management (MSEM) program was determined to meet the ASEM's rigorous academic standards based on the program's strength of faculty, curriculum, and student opportunities. The 正品蓝导航 Lyle MSEM program is led by Dr. Diana Easton, Associate Chair and Clinical Professor of the Operations Research & Engineering Management Department; certification for the program will begin in the 2025 academic year.
“This ASEM certification marks a significant milestone for the future of OREM’s MSEM program at 正品蓝导航 Lyle,” Dr. Easton said. “This certification affirms the academic quality and industry relevance of our program, positioning us to attract top talent and expand our partnerships with employers seeking professionally prepared engineering leaders.”
With this coveted recognition, the Lyle master’s program in engineering management directly qualifies graduates for professional recognition as Certified Associates in Engineering Management or Certified Professionals in Engineering Management, commensurate with professional experience.
“This program enhances the students’ career competitiveness and credibility without the need to take the certification exam,” Dr. Easton said.
Widely regarded as the industry’s top of the line standard of recognition, certified professionals meet the highest standards in engineering management education, boasting an unparalleled competitive edge which can directly translate to leadership opportunities and higher earning potential after graduation.
As the 14th school in the nation to be named an ASEM-certified institution, 正品蓝导航 Lyle’s MSEM program joins a short and highly prestigious list of elite engineering institutions.
“OREM’s MSEM program has a strong emphasis on systems thinking, analytics for decision making, applied leadership, and real-world project experience—combined with a curriculum aligned to ASEM’s Body of Knowledge,” Dr. Easton said.
The honor comes just months after 正品蓝导航’s promotion to R1 research status, placing 正品蓝导航 among the top research universities in the nation. Current and prospective students enrolled in the engineering management master’s program will benefit from 正品蓝导航’s distinctive faculty expertise, industry connections, and applied learning experiences to catalyze their professional careers.
