Course Descriptions<br />

MEM Foundation Courses<br />

MEM 501 Fundamentals of Probability and Statistics for Engineers<br />

Prerequisite: None<br />

This course develops a thorough understanding of the methods of probability and statistics which are used to<br />

model engineering problems and develop the necessary skills to implement and analyze basic statistical models<br />

using computer software packages. The course covers the following topics: Fundamentals of probability,<br />

distribution theory, data analysis and statistics, interval estimation, hypothesis testing, and regression analysis.<br />

MEM 502 Fundamentals of Engineering Economy<br />

Prerequisite: None<br />

This course deals <strong>with</strong> the application of economic analysis models for decisions between alternatives. In<br />

particular we approach problem solving by considering the time value of money. In general, a dollar of revenue or<br />

expense today is not equivalent to a dollar of revenue or expense three years from now. Concepts in this class are<br />

equally applicable to engineering, business and financial systems problems. Comparisons methods based on<br />

present worth of cash flow, and simple, internal and external rates of return are studied.<br />

MEM Core Courses (List 1)<br />

MEM 600 Engineering Management Concepts<br />

Prerequisite: None<br />

This course is focused on demonstrating the latest applications of engineering management techniques in real<br />

engineering and management systems. These multidisciplinary techniques are based on a range of engineering<br />

management topics such as project management, optimization, operations management, international business,<br />
