3.14.1.3. The MSc programme

When studying for your master's in Engineering Management you can choose to structure your studies in two

ways. You can either combine your own courses - and by doing so design your very own profile - or you can
specialize within one of our four study lines:

3.14.1.3.1. Design and Management of Complex Systems, Structures and Projects

The study line is aimed at students who will specialize in management and innovation in connection with the

planning, design, establishment, operation, and administration of complex context depended systems, struc-

tures, and projects - for example buildings, technical infrastructure, factories, energy works, city areas, and
theme parks. Such constructions and projects are characterized by huge investments, a high degree of unika

production, roots in the local community, long lifespan, many stakeholders, clouded risk profile - as well as a

high degree of importance to society. At the same time, this work area requires the ability to implement both
