Our two-year Master of Engineering Management online for working professionals in addition to virtual learning that fits a working schedule, features three immersive in-person residencies on the Duke campus.

Our online students take the same proven core curriculum as on-campus: marketing, finance, intellectual property and business law and management. Students can focus on commercialization, finance, or operations management, and select technical electives to further deepen their technical knowledge.

Duke’s innovative learning method integrates the flexibility of online classes with cohort-centric residencies that promote skill and knowledge development through activities, seminars, and workshops.
