Question about MSc in Technology Management

Hi Everybody
This is JOEY from Hong Kong, I would like to apply for MSc in Technology Management, would anyone give me some ideas about this course? I dont have any background in Management before but got a MSc degree already, is it possible for me to receive a offer from University of Groningen??
Thank you very much!
Joey

Hi Joey,

What did you study? If you really didn't have management courses, you would probably have to do a one year pre-programme before entering the one year MSc Technology Management. My suggestion is to apply as soon as possible, so that the faculty can decide about your case and inform you in advance.

The Master is about managing technical-oriented innovations in the field of processes, products and services. Actually, I am studying this programme and enjoy it a lot.

Here a link with detailed information about the courses and a more general one that suits your situation:

Hi Joey,

It's very exciting to see you posting the first question already - a week before the forum will officially be 'on air'!

The information on the pre-programmes offered has just been changed and there is a new url:

This is the url for TM: http://www.rug.nl/feb/onderwijs/hbozijinstroom/premsctm/index

As Gregor said; it's important to send in your application as early as possible so that the Admissions Board of Technology Management can inform you early about their decision.

Hi, Joey,

So happy to see your post! I am also a student from Asia, Guangdong, mainland China. As mentioned above, it is better to send your applicantion documents as soon as possible. And if you need to have the one-year pre-master program, don't worry about that! I am sure you will enjoy lots of fun with other bacholar students. I also did the pre-master, it was nice to meet lots of international students and work on assignments with them. That is great and precious experience!!!

Hope to see you soon!

Good luck!
