Course Content

The topics of this course can be divided into 3 subsections. In the first subsection we will focus on the functions of technology management. These functions include planning, decision making, organizing, leading people, entrepreneurship, innovation and controlling. In the second section we will discuss how we can manage technology through product life cycle. In this section we will focus on the management of research-development functions, planning and managing production process, marketing and services activities. In the third section we will focus on engineering ethics concepts, responsibilities and rights of engineers and finally managing individual engineering careers.
