Now in its 40th year, EPSE has graduated over 1000 senior level professionals and has helped them become more valuable and productive as they broadened their perspective and identified with their overall business. EPSE has provided science and engineering senior professionals with an Executive Perspective on the business and management challenges facing today's technology industries.

EPSE addresses the need for professional development and was designed with the rising population of scientists and engineers in mind. The program's team-oriented and fast-paced format introduces participants to a whole new arena of knowledge and perspective about science and technology-based business. It helps the region's science-based talent advance into leadership positions, which benefits the individual, their employer, and the regional economy.

EPSE is designed for mid- to senior-level scientists and engineers who have several years of supervisory and operational experience. Applicants should have a degree in engineering, science, computer science, or related field.
