I would have to say in my experience with the management of technology program, it was beneficial to have a wide variety of students and professors with varying work experiences. This allowed me to get different perspectives on issues that we discussed in the classroom and ones that I dealt with at the office every day. The IET department seems to place a high value on real job experience and partners with industry to convey that type of knowledge to their student body. This program is just as pertinent for a current industrial manager, as it would be for the future managers of the industrial world.

I worked for one year in the industry and felt I was not equipped with enough knowledge and training with just my undergraduate degree. The graduate program has filled that need while also helping me with my English Skills.

I graduated in Electronics Engineering. I think learning about technology engineering is straightforward, but learning to manage has proven difficult. I chose the management of technology program to sharpen my skills, engineering, and overall managerial skills to ensure a complete future.
