As a joint program between the Erik Jonsson School of Engineering and Computer Science (ECS) and the Naveen Jindal School of Management (JSOM), Systems Engineering and Management (SEM) features both technical and human-centered courses. The curriculum provides students with the knowledge and skills to design, develop and manage complex projects requiring wide-ranging scientific and business competencies.
