The Master of Engineering Technical Management (METM) is an online, part-time, four-semester lockstep program. At the beginning of each academic year, students are required to attend a one-week residency at Texas A&M University. After residency week, students will return home where they will complete the remaining coursework online throughout the Fall and Spring semesters.
