Executive Master’s Degrees
Texas Engineering Executive Education offers executive master’s
degree programs that provide results-based learning through
flexible two-year programs, offering the unique opportunity to
obtain your degree while working full time.

Classes meet online or one weekend per month on The University

of Texas at Austin campus and are taught by esteemed faculty
members in the Cockrell School of Engineering as well as industry
practitioners. We offer four distinct programs for busy engineers:

Engineering Management
For engineers who want to lead, this program is an engineering
alternative to a traditional MBA. Gain core business fundamentals,
engineering tools to manage technical, business, and human-
performance processes, and an executive’s perspective to equip
leaders to better manage, change, and achieve their company’s
goals.
• Available on-site one weekend a month with synchronous
online viewing options available.
Mechanical Engineering
This program provides students with the knowledge and skills
to solve engineering design problems with innovative solutions.
Offered fully online, it leverages the expertise of graduate
engineering faculty and modern course-delivery platforms
to deliver the exact same education as the full-time, in-person
program.
• 100% online program.
Software Engineering
Learn to better analyze and design software systems through
solid foundational principles and cutting-edge software
techniques. This program covers critical topics such as software
design, multicore computing, big data, data mining, mobile
computing, distributed systems, algorithmic foundations and
software testing, that prepare technical leaders.
• Classes are on-site one weekend per month.
Professional Development
Our professional development program provides results-based
learning and continuing education units (CEUs) to busy engineers.
We offer short courses, workshops, and online learning on the latest
in software and technology engineering; engineering business
and leadership; civil, environmental, and petroleum engineering;
emerging technologies; and operational excellence.
We also offer custom courses for your company. PETEX
Petroleum Extension (PETEX) is the world’s premiere learning solutions provider in oil and gas. PETEX trains professionals at all levels around the
globe in new technologies, cutting-edge equipment and current industry standards and practices for superior performance.
