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.
