Liberty University’s MS in Engineering is focused on the “Creationeering” philosophy of melding business and engineering. You can graduate prepared to lead a team of engineers, and together, you can better your company and the world around you. With our vision to Train Champions for Christ, you’ll get an added edge to your degree that demonstrates a level of integrity that companies need in their engineering leaders.

What is Creationeering?

At Liberty, we define Creationeering as the joining of engineering processes with basic business concepts. For the engineering side of things, this includes the design, synthesis, procurement, logistics, assembly, performance, sustainability, and recycling of a process. The business side of Creationeering focuses on the value of people, finances, moral law, communications, and organizational structure.
