In today’s increasingly competitive business environment characterized by shortened product life cycles, global competition, increased market segmentation, and re-structured industry value chains, there is a critical need for men and women with a passion for technology who understand their firm’s business models and can contribute to the successes of their organization. The Technology Management Program (TMP) meets this need and adds an academic distinction to an undergraduate degree with which few students from other universities, technology or otherwise, can compete.
TMP helps prepare undergraduate students to enter the technology business world with knowledge of balance sheets, income statements, discounted cash flows, capital budgeting, opportunity recognition, market segmentation, target marketing and sales, IP management, business planning, public speaking, team work, and leadership. Our goal is to see UC Santa Barbara‘s Technology Management students sought out by technology corporations and start-ups.
What is the Technology Management Program?
Technology Management is a unique business education program within one of the world’s leading colleges of engineering, UC Santa Barbara. The program is designed to give technology students, through course work and practical experience, a leading edge on business practices and entrepreneurship in technology-based companies and to help non-technology students a step up in entering one of the world’s leading technology companies.
Do I need to be enrolled in the Program to take classes?
No. As long as you are a current student at UCSB, you can take single courses for enrichment. The Technology Management program allows students the versatility to gain insight into a select area of business or to gain expertise in technology management.
What is the Technology Entrepreneurship Certificate?
Students who are concurrently pursuing a BA, MA or PhD can take a series of core business management/entrepreneurship courses as well as participate in a student organization whose mission involves technology, business or entrepreneurship and receive a certificate in Technology Entrepreneurship.

This exciting educational program features cutting edge curriculum, team based interdisciplinary projects, and the resources of a leading technology college.
