Is it worth spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to read MEM, and how many years does it take t

First, let's talk about MEM; The Master of Engineering Management is a professional degree proposed by the Chinese Academy of Engineering in 2010 and commissioned by Tsinghua University to conduct discipline demonstration, and approved in the same year. Engineering management is the decision-making, planning, organization, command, coordination and control of engineering practice. Includes:

management in the technical and economic demonstration and implementation of decision-making of major engineering construction projects; management of important and complex new products, equipment and equipment in the development, manufacturing and production process; management of technological innovation, technological transformation, transformation, transformation, and international standards; Research and management of major layout and development strategies of industry, engineering and science and technology. Secondly, at present, many colleges and universities have opened this major, from the perspective of students' classes and employment in various colleges, it is still very optimistic, such as Shanghai Jiaotong University, Tongji and other schools in Shanghai, in addition, the difficulty of the MEM exam is relatively moderate, the test is a management joint examination, compared with the general research, it is much easier, and the admission score of the school is not particularly high; If you just want to improve your academic qualifications, it is definitely worth reading MEM.

The Master of Engineering Management (MEM) aims to cultivate leading talents who are proficient in engineering technology and management, as well as the optimal allocation of economy and resources in major engineering projects. MEM can be traced back to 1908 at the Stevens Institute of Technology in the United States, and after the 80s, it has been popularized in more than 100 universities in developed countries, including Stanford University, Northwestern University, Cornell University and other famous universities. According to statistics, the average income of MEM graduates in the United States has surpassed that of MBA graduates, and the number of students enrolled is increasing year by year.

China's engineering management degree education originated from the initiative of a group of senior academicians such as Zhu Gaofeng, vice president of the Chinese Academy of Engineering, in 2010, and commissioned Tsinghua University to conduct discipline demonstration. In the same year, the Ministry of Education approved and set up a new master's degree in engineering management to meet the urgent demand for engineering management talents in the development of modern engineering in China, improve the training system of engineering management talents, innovate the training mode of engineering management talents, improve the quality of talents in engineering management in China, and meet the needs of national economic construction. At present, there are nearly 100 colleges and universities in China to set up a master's degree in engineering management, and the Academic Degree Committee, the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security jointly established the National Steering Committee for Graduate Education in Engineering Management, the secretariat is located in Tsinghua University, and the chairman is Academician Qiu Yong, President of Tsinghua University.

With the rapid development of the times, the speed of personnel turnover is getting faster and faster, and if you want to excel in your work, academic qualifications, knowledge framework system and work ability are becoming more and more important.

The gold content of MEM is still good, and the rewards that you usually want to get from reading MEM can be divided into three aspects: academic improvement, alumni resources, and knowledge acquisition.

To improve academic qualifications, MEM is a double certificate, and there are academic degrees.

Alumni Resources. Students who study MEM come from all walks of life, and they will be differentiated according to the professional strengths of each school, including automation, automotive, construction engineering, aircraft or other manufacturing industries. You may meet some of the best students here.

Nature of the exam. The comprehensive ability examination is a national joint examination subject with a selective nature set up for colleges and universities and scientific research institutes to recruit master's degree students in management, and its purpose is to scientifically, fairly and effectively test whether candidates have the basic qualities, general ability and training potential necessary for professional degrees.

The standard of evaluation is the passing or above level that undergraduate graduates of colleges and universities can achieve, so as to facilitate the selection of the best majors in various colleges and universities and scientific research institutes, and ensure the enrollment quality of professional degree master's students.

Compared with MBA, MEM tuition is not too expensive, especially some schools in the Midwest, which are more cost-effective. The MBA tuition of the popular 985 211 schools is generally higher, and the tuition of the same school may be more than half cheaper than the MBA. Taking Tsinghua University and Peking University MEM in 2020 as an example, the tuition fee of Tsinghua MEM program is 10,000 (part-time), and the tuition fee of MEM program of Peking University School of Soft and Micro is 10,000 (part-time).

90,000 (full-time). It is definitely worth it to be able to obtain a graduate degree from these prestigious universities with a tuition fee of less than 200,000 yuan.

MEM is more in line with the career development of candidates in the engineering field, and the reason for tuition is increasing. In recent years, the growth momentum of MEM has been very strong, and the number of colleges and universities offering MEM has nearly doubled from about 100, and the competition has become more and more searchable or fierce, and the tuition fee has naturally risen. Four years ago, Zhejiang University.

In the first year, when the MEM was first opened, the tuition fee was 60,000 yuan, and in 2020, it has risen to 150,000 yuan; Tongji Leaky Mu University.

The tuition fee of MEM colleges has risen from 10,000 to 10,000.

MEM is a master's degree in engineering management, which is mainly divided into four professional development directions: engineering management, project management, industrial engineering management, and logistics engineering management. At present, there are more than 200 schools across the country that offer MEM, and the tuition fees range from tens of thousands to more than 200,000 yuan.

However, in recent years, with the growth of the country's economic construction needs, the popularity of applying for the examination has risen, and the tuition fee has also increased year by year. Tsinghua University MEM announced that the tuition fee for 2022 will be 10,000 yuan, which is 70,000 more than the 10,000 yuan in 2021, ranking among the top three in the tuition list of domestic MEM colleges. In the context of the whole country, MEM is still a very cost-effective dual master's program compared to the promotion of the age.

Among the management masters, the Master of Management in Engineering is relatively niche, and the number of applicants is not as good as the popular MBA and MPA, but because of its strong professionalism, the MEM program attracts more and more engineering management talents.

At present, there are about 171 colleges and universities in the country to quietly open MEM programs, and the tuition fees of ordinary colleges and universities are usually less than 100,000 yuan.

I am the direction of engineering management, MEM generally reads for three years, the difficulty of the exam depends on the degree of review, the preliminary examination is the national joint examination, and the duplex depends on the interview policy approved by each university in advance, and there is little difference.

1. MEM (Master of Engineering Management) is for those who have more than three years of experience in engineering management and have a bachelor's degree in science and engineering in the national education sequence (generally should have a bachelor's degree in science and engineering).

The Master of Engineering Management (MEM) is a new professional degree established in 2010. Its purpose is to meet the urgent demand for engineering management talents in the development of China's modern engineering industry, improve the engineering management talent training system, innovate the engineering management talent training model, and improve the quality of engineering management talents in China. The training of the Master of Engineering Management focuses on providing students with the ability to understand the core areas of management.

As a master's degree in engineering management, MEM is a double degree in many colleges and universities, which is very beneficial to the improvement of candidates' knowledge and knowledge, which is briefly introduced as follows:

The general application requirements include the following points (taking 2021 as an example):

1) Citizens of the People's Republic of China;

2. Support the leadership of the Communist Party of China, be willing to serve socialist modernization, have good moral character, and abide by the law;

3. Candidates' academic qualifications must meet one of the following conditions;

1) Those who have 3 or more years of work experience after obtaining a nationally recognized university bachelor's degree (graduation certificate obtained before September 1, 2018);

2) Those who have 5 or more years of work experience after obtaining a nationally recognized college degree (graduation certificate obtained before September 1, 2016);

3) Those who have obtained a master's degree or doctoral degree and have 2 or more years of work experience (graduated before September 1, 2019);

Nowadays, most of the MEMs are on-the-job, and there are many universities that have early interviews: for example, Tongji University (only recruits bachelor's degree or above), Huali, Fudan and so on have early interviews. If you get an excellent score in the interview, the written test score meets the score required by the school for admission.

The duration of the first class is one year, and there are also 2 years and 3 years; For example, Shanghai Jiaotong University, Tongji University, and Wuhan University all take 2 years; Fudan, Nanda, Southeast and so on are 3 years; Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, Donghua University, Western University of Technology, Dalian Institute of Technology, etc.

MEM application needs to meet the requirements of college graduation for five years, bachelor's degree for three years, and master's graduation for two years, it should be noted that the time mentioned here refers to the deadline from the graduation time of your last school to the MEM admission time, not the examination time, which is 9 months earlier than the admission time).

According to the current Shanghai MEM enrollment requirements, most colleges and universities MEM need to be re-examined, Tongji does not need to re-test (2020), Fudan is to set its own scores, and the rules of each institution are different.

The MEM exam and the MBA exam are the same test paper, according to the rules of the joint examination in the past two years, the difficulty of the mathematics test questions has increased, and mathematics is directly related to whether it can reach the eastern line of the country, and the national line score in the past two years is also getting higher and higher.

1. The main reason is that more professional talents need to be cultivated, so there are higher requirements for the difficulty of mathematics questions.

2. With the market demand, the number of candidates has increased by about 20% per year. There are more and more young candidates. They are very test-taking, have plenty of time to study, and have a strong ability to learn.

Therefore, the overall test score is all pulled up, and for candidates who have graduated for many years, the time to leave the learning environment is a bit long, and many knowledge points are basically forgotten.

The time of the joint entrance examination is in late December every year, and the review time can be more than a year, 10 months, or 3 months, depending on your own arrangement. It is generally recommended that you review as early as possible and prepare as early as possible. It is recommended that you sign up for a tutorial class.

The purpose of enrolling in a tutorial class is to have a professional tutor, and it is easier to accumulate in a timely manner. And now the tuition fee of colleges and universities is ** every year, and the range of ** is much more than the tuition fee of MEM tutorial class, so there are certain benefits to applying for tutorial classes. Reviewing the written exam can also review the interview, which will help you get the MEM interview excellent and pass the written exam of the joint entrance examination.

MEM is different from the general postgraduate majors, whether it is the faculty, teaching content, or training methods, it requires a lot of input costs, so the tuition fee is naturally much more expensive than most other majors.

In recent years, the number of MEM applicants has been growing, and the increase in the popularity of postgraduate entrance examinations may also be a factor affecting MEM tuition**. But more importantly, the tuition fee ** also means that the teaching mode of the college MEM is more perfect, and the teaching quality has also improved.

Some MEM colleges have increased their investment in hardware, such as the School of Engineering of Zhejiang University, which has invested 100 million yuan to build an engineering innovation training platform, which is specially designed to carry out characteristic engineering management practical teaching for MEM students, so as to better break the boundaries between students' own industry and other disciplines, and cultivate students' cross-engineering system awareness and system thinking ability.

Since it is said to be cost-effective, it is natural that we cannot simply compare **, and value is also an important factor we need to consider. In recent years, the maturity rate of the MEM education system in China has far outpaced the growth rate of tuition fees. Therefore, we can still say that MEM is a very cost-effective program among the management masters.
