We are living in the technology era. As society becomes more and more
technology-dependent, it is clear that those who can manage technology will be
the leaders in the decades to come. The Department of Engineering and Technology
Management (ETM) prepares professionals in engineering, science and related
disciplines to lead their organizations to success in this era. The Department
has been committed to the ideals of engineering and technology management
education since its establishment in 1987. With more than 400 graduates in 26
countries and 150 active Master’s and Ph.D. students, ETM provides the best
foundation for the increasingly technology-driven world in which we live.
Our department is offering almost 40 different courses this year. In response to
the high demand for our courses, some are offered more than once, bringing the
total number of sections to nearly 50. In order to accommodate the needs of
students employed in Oregon’s technology-based industries, we are offering about
half of our courses at the PSU-West campus at Capital Center in Washington
County.
We wish our current and future students endless success in moving toward
leadership in the innovation economy of the technology era.
