Coursework

The ME-EM requires a minimum of 30 credit hours of approved, degree-eligible graduate-level coursework and a minimum cumulative grade-point average (GPA) of 3.0. Courses in which grades of C+ or below are received may not be applied toward the degree but will count toward the cumulative GPA (no more than three credits of C+ can be applied toward degree program requirements).

You must complete 12 credits of core coursework in finance, project management, authentic leadership, and communication and 18 credits of elective coursework across a variety of topic areas, including technology entrepreneurship, product development, ethical decision-making, and more.

All EMEA courses on Coursera count towards the ME-EM. The curriculum also permits additional elective courses. Up to 9 credits of courses offered by CU Boulder's Master of Science in Electrical Engineering (MS-EE) on Coursera, Master of Science in Computer Science (MS-CS) on Coursera and Master of Science in Data Science (MS-DS) on Coursera, may be applied as elective credits toward the ME-EM degree. Courses must be graduate-level and meet all applicable academic standards. Courses may not be double-counted toward two credentials of the same level. Only courses offered through Coursera may be used.
