Scope

This program provides recognition for those programs that offer Master’s level engineering management education that meets the rigorous standards of ASEM. It also provides a benchmark to compare an existing Master’s program relative to ASEM’s broadly based quality standards, both for program content and operation. In particular, certification is especially useful to validate new Master’s programs. The certification process is applicable to all Master’s level programs in engineering management or closely related fields such as technology management.

Value

ASEM’s rigorous standards for graduate program certification are built on the Engineering Management Body of Knowledge and represent program standards in faculty, curriculum, admission, and administrative support. ASEM Certification represents excellence in program quality and distinguishes certified programs as being in the top tier in graduate engineering management related programs, worldwide.  ASEM’s graduate program certification provides the following benefits for programs and their students:
