Technology Management, one of academia's rapidly expanding disciplines, produces professionals qualified to manage and direct technology. The ability to apply knowledge and actions utilizing the world's resources with integrity, to design produce, and use products is a hallmark of such a program. Professionals in this discipline require intense study in the areas of scientific and technological developments within the context of our global, political and economic community. Equally important is the acute awareness that these scholars must develop regarding ethical and moral issues surrounding technology. The Ph.D. in Technology Management prepares students for these challenges.
