International Technology Management Research Seminar
Content
Technology management is a dynamic and vibrant research field with a highly interdisciplinary nature – and vast job opportunities domestically and abroad. In this course, we focus on recent trends in an international context. Key concepts are discussed and applied via course assignments. The objective is to deepen the understanding of state-of-the-art technology management approaches for the successful development and commercialization of new products, services, and processes in various industries. Participating groups will work interdisciplinary.
The winter semester 2021/22 is centered on contemporary research in international technology and innovation management. We focus on essential skills to strive in intense environments, developed and emerging markets, fierce global competition, times of digital transformation, novel ecosystems, and frugal as well as high-tech innovation.
Specifically, participants will gain deep insights into trends covered by top tier international journals in technology and innovation management research. Herein, students will identify hot subjects, methodologies applied, and regional differences. Further, their understanding of academic research and the ability to craft academic paper – including bachelor/master thesis – is strengthened. This term, we focus on a wide array of methods for both quantitative and qualitative research.
It is intended that participants will present their newly acquired competences to their peers, a group of academics, and practitioners. The course will be complemented by guest lectures from visiting scholars and industry representatives, where applicable.
