A majority of engineers willing to shift to management opt for full time Master’s in Business Administration (MBA) programme to hone their managerial skills and for a significant jump in their salary. However, students, who do not want to completely shift from their technical fields, can go for MEM as this programme can help them master all the management acumen while keeping up with the technical aspects of the engineering domain. One point where MEM has an edge over MBA is the qualifying test score required. MEM accepts both GRE and GMAT scores while most MBA programmes consider only GMAT score; this means students can get admission in MEM through any of these tests. So, all the management aspirants from engineering background should decide carefully over ‘MBA or MEM’ before proceeding for the next stage of their educational journey.

Now, the question is where to pursue MEM from? What are the top universities for Engineering Management or MEM? According to the Master of Engineering Management Programs Consortium (MEMPC), there are seven best universities in the US to study engineering management which are:

There are many ways to choose your university such as fees, the ranking of the university, which state it is located and scholarships. My suggestion is to choose your research focus and write academic papers. In the US, PhD in Commerce admission into the university depends on what you want to study (your area of research) and your already completed research papers. You can begin your research by searching online for US universities offering PhD in Business Administration. One example is University of California Los Angeles (https://www.anderson.ucla.edu/degrees/phd-program/admissions#app-req) .
