Organizations that adopt new technology to meet business objectives like improved quality, efficiency, safety and flexibility sometimes find that purchases of expensive equipment and systems do not produce the desired results. Unlike courses offered by engineering programs, our courses emphasize proven ways of integrating technology into organizations to optimize acceptance and effectiveness. And unlike technology management courses offered by business schools, ours focus on the value-added role that all stakeholder groups play in the change process. This includes not only managers and engineers, but also front-line employees, union representatives, and trainers. Most of our students are full-time professionals.
Classes meet one night per week per course.
Some are also offered on Saturdays, or in compressed formats. Classes can be arranged on site at your own workplace for groups of ten or more students. What's more, only 30-32 credit hours are needed to earn the Master's degree. The reasonable cost of tuition makes the program even more accessible, and many employers offer tuition reimbursement to employees seeking a graduate degree . Courses are taught primarily by full-time faculty with years of teaching experience and internationally recognized research reputations and publications.
