Engineering Management Marks Broad-Based Expansion, continued

Assistant professor Rochelle Young teaches graduate and undergraduate courses in engineering management.

Additionally, the program has increased its offering of undergraduate courses, generating a series of nine-hour mini-tracks that students can choose to satisfy technical elective requirements. The mini-tracks, which are focused in entrepreneurship, quality and process, project management, and operations, provide a business perspective to complement the technical education of engineering students.

The program also has expanded its professional activities, becoming more involved with the Deming Center for Entrepreneurship on the CU-Boulder campus, the Engineering Management Division of the American Society for Engineering Education, the Colorado Performance Excellence Program, and the American Society for Engineering Management.

In 2001, the program intends to use its distance education capabilities to launch new outreach efforts in Colorado. The program now has four full-time faculty with the addition of a new assistant professor last fall.
