Why study Business Technology Management?
While most firms play catch-up with technology, your skills — built on a solid grasp of technology, business, process, project and change management — close that gap. This program turns you into a tech-savvy manager who can implement information and communication technologies (ICT), increase productivity and be an innovative entrepreneur. You’ll build knowledge and skills in:
- Information and communication technology
- Business process analysis
- Project management
- Critical thinking
- Communications and interpersonal skills
You’ll graduate as a manager who understands technology and computer programming, who can supervise projects, introduce new technology to a workplace or join a whip-smart start-up. That’s a solid competitive advantage any business would invest in.
Program highlights
- A next-gen program offered at only a select few Business schools
