Please note

This course is currently under review, and may not be admitting any students for 2014 entry. An update will be posted here in due course.

What is Engineering, Economics and Management (EEM)?

Engineering, Economics and ManagementEEM is a joint course, but it is primarily an engineering course, with around two-thirds in engineering. It is possible to apply for direct admission to the course, but you can leave the decision to study EEM until after the first-year examinations, provided your college offers EEM and gives permission for the transfer (see Which colleges offer my course?, St John’s also allow transfers in the second year).

The flexible structure of the course allows students to choose either a broad-based degree or one with more specialist work in economics or management. The course is recognised as being extremely demanding and many employers clearly value the course highly.

Careers

EEM graduates find employment in almost all branches of industry and commerce. They are highly prized by both management consultants and financial institutions as well as by the manufacturing industry. Recent graduates have secured positions in the motor vehicle industry, technical consultancy and investment analysis, and include a structural engineer and an investment banker.

Rodrigo, who graduated in 2006, now heads a division as Territory Manager for Ecolab, a FORBES 500 chemical company in Nicaragua. He says: I can summarise my Oxford experience as an “ode to eloquence” where I was taught to articulate my thoughts in an effective manner in order to achieve tangible results through the influence on others. At the tender age of 23, I was trusted with the responsibility of managing a technical sales team for an entire country.’
