Descriptions

In the Technology Management programme, you will strengthen your expertise in leadership and development tasks within a company or other organisation operating in the field of technology.
In addition to enhancing your own skills, the programme offers you the opportunity to develop your work community through learning assignments and, in particular, a development project carried out as your thesis.

The studies include both broadening and deepening knowledge in leadership and development. The curriculum covers topics such as knowledge work management, foresight and innovation management, project management, as well as strengthening research and development skills.
In addition, students have the opportunity to deepen their expertise through elective courses in areas such as human resource management, strategic management, quality management, financial management, development activities, international business, or specific contemporary issues in technology companies, such as digitalisation, artificial intelligence and data analytics, or energy transition management.

An individual study plan is prepared for each student, and the programme may include courses offered not only by the implementing universities of applied sciences, but also by other universities of applied sciences and traditional universities.
