Singapore Management University to Launch First
Technology Management Series
The
Institution of Engineers, Singapore (IES), and
Singapore Management University (SMU) signed a
memorandum of understanding (‘MOU’)
to establish their collaborative efforts in the
development and delivery of a series of Technology
Management Executive Programmes on 27 August 2002.
The ceremony was officiated by Teo Ming Kian,
Chairman, Economic Development Board. This is
the first time IES, which conducts regular technical
skills upgrading courses, is offering its members
structured programmes focused on management and
business skills training. This new executive education
series will equip IES members with critical management
tools to ensure that they have the right combination
of technological know-how and business savvy to
succeed in today’s fast-moving commercial
environment.
The inaugural Chief Technology Officer Programme
will be launched from 6 to 8 November on SMU Bukit
Timah campus. It aims to equip CTOs and senior
management with the latest concepts and applications
in the field of technology management. Topics
include Corporate Technology Strategies, Management
of Research & Development and Management of
Innovations.
Two
other programmes are scheduled in 2003: Hi-Tech
Marketing for Technology Managers (27 - 28 Feb);
and Financial Strategies for Technology Managers
(14 - 15 Aug).
