Operations Management
Operations managers are often doing their best work when no one knows they're there. That's because operations managers are responsible for the smooth functioning of production, inventory management, plant operations, and resource development.
Education and Career Opportunities in Operations Management
Degrees in operations management can often be found at the master's level as part of an MBA program or at the PhD level. Doctoral degrees in operations management prepare you to become a corporate consultant, professor, and researcher. Master's degrees in operations management may be a part of a business school or can be earned as a master's in engineering management. Either degree should allow you to successfully oversee projects from concept to execution. Engineering managers are trained to focus on processes and develop efficient methods to scale out production or resource utilization.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics expects engineering management jobs to increase in coming years and reported a median annual salary of $117,000 for these professionals in 2009.
