Typical Schedule
Our courses are progressively structured and delivered in both eight and sixteen week modules, which allows us to deep dive into a vast array of important topics over the one year time frame of the Technology Management Program. There is even the chance for enterprising students to further refine the curriculum to suit his or her personal needs with additional courses from the University of Illinois' vast course catalog, a minor in accountancy, corporate governance and international business, or information technology.
