<p>Hi all,</p>

<p>I'm planning on applying to MIT's TPP program with the aim of going into a technology management role or a consulting/banking role afterwards. I'm 2 years out of school with experience at an engineering firm and don't yet think I'm ready to go for an MBA. (I would only aim for a top 10 school, otherwise it's not worth it IMO)</p>

<p>I need to find some second and third choice schools. I'm looking at some Masters in Engineering Management programs. Can anyone answer: </p>

<p>1) Are there opportunities to get recruited into management consulting, etc out of MEM programs? Are there specific schools that are known for this?</p>

<p>2) Are there any programs along the same lines as MIT's TPP programs that you'd recommend? Specifically, I'm looking for a program where I can leverage technical expertise but transition to a managerial/policy role. </p>

<p>3) Am I neglecting something obvious?</p>

<p>Thanks,</p>

<p>Alex</p>

<p>I think Carnegie Mellon has some sort of program you’re looking for. I know there’s stuff in both engineering & public policy as well as their managerial school aimed towards what you’re looking into.</p>
