Success of courses which combine engineering and management

There is an almost infinite number of ways in which undergraduate courses can combine engineering and management. In practice, such courses fall into three main categories: accredited courses with a small management contribution (~-10%), accredited courses with a substantial management contribution (~-20%), and nonaccredited courses with approximately equal contributions from engineering and management (~50%). This paper describes typical courses in each of these categories and, more importantly, how successful they have been from a student´s point of view
