what

In the digital revolution, all companies are or must become technology companies. And technology companies must hire and produce Industry 4.0 engineering manager leaders, if they are to modernize their engineering workforce and produce the best products and services. The Master of Engineering Management & Leadership (MEML) degree and the new graduate Certificate in Engineering Management & Leadership (CEML) program was designed to help traditional engineers pivot into the new generation of digital transformation technical leaders.  The series exposes engineers and scientists to selected skills and concepts presented in the MEML degree and the CEML program.

The Rice Center for Engineering Leadership (RCEL) is hosting this information session and networking mixer at the Ion for its corporate partners and affiliated professional organizations as well as affinity groups.  There will be a brief presentation highlighting RCEL’s different programs and the opportunity to meet with RCEL faculty to answer questions about the programs. This networking mixer will also be a great way to connect with other Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) professionals within the Ion District’s Innovation Ecosystem.

Register to attend and come enjoy refreshments while gaining enlightenment and meeting professionals!
