THE ENGINEERING MANAGEMENT JOURNAL

 

Focus Area: Building Engineering Management Actionable Knowledge

The area of Building Engineering Management Actionable Knowledge of the Engineering Management Journal (EMJ) focuses on the opportunities that organizational research and interventions, especially in engineering and technology driven organizations, provide for advancing literature on the roles that knowledge have upon organizational change.

 

During organizational research and interventions knowledge for change is created and applied, and knowledge about change is developed.  The intent of this focus area is to disseminate such knowledge in a way that promotes dialog between researchers and practitioners of engineering and technology management. The dissemination of knowledge for and about change will increase the opportunities to develop new, enhance existing, and better the application of theories, concepts, and frameworks of organizational change in engineering and technology based organizations.

 

The EMJ encourages researchers and practitioners from a broad range of disciplines including engineering and technology management, organizational behavior, psychology, sociology, and systems engineering to submit papers to the journal. The editor will evaluate for publication empirical and theoretical manuscripts that contribute useful and usable knowledge for managers of engineering and technology based organizations.

 

This EMJ focus area seeks to increase understanding on how knowledge that promotes organizational change can be identified, created, transferred, validated, and applied through engineering and technology research and interventions. Research questions that are encouraged to be explored by authors include, but are not limited to the following:
