Does the Technology Management MBA fit your career goals?
There’s no denying the commonality among our Technology Management MBA students. The variety of job titles and backgrounds is representative of the tech industry. They are driven, experienced professionals with a passion for advancing their careers. Yet “advancement” differs in meaning depending on the student, because our program fits the career aspirations of three distinct categories.
Whether you’re an entrepreneur, career changer or career advancer, your investment in the Technology Management MBA from the nationally ranked Foster School of Business will pay back dividends in the knowledge, skills and confidence you need to succeed.
The entrepreneur
Some professionals earn their Technology Management MBAs to prepare them to start their own businesses. 15% of TMMBA alumni have started their own company. Taught in a technology context, the curriculum is grounded in business management principles and covers the required range of knowledge, from marketing to operations to economics. Plus the learning is hands-on, and wouldn’t you rather learn practical skills ahead of time rather than in the trenches of self employment? |

The career changer
Other professionals earn their Technology Management MBAs in order to transition from a technology position to a more strategic business function. These are people with solid backgrounds in technology roles such as system administrator or software developer, but they are ready to take on more responsibility and to play a more active role in their organization’s growth. The TMMBA helps them connect their deep technology experience with the necessary business management skills and knowledge. |

The career advancer
Still other professionals want to stay in their current disciplines, but earn their Technology Management MBA to move up the career ladder. Although any MBA aids in career advancement, savvy technology professionals know the technology focus of the TMMBA is more relevant for their careers and for the Puget Sound and other tech-focused regions.
