Should I choose (the Focus) MTEC?
If you are curious… Why do technologies fail to impact society?
The non diffusion of clean technologies
Why do most start ups fail?
Plenty of start ups, lack of growth
How can we do better?
Why do governments set up policies?
Innovation policies, venture capital finance, consumer protection etc.
And the most important question of all:
How can we succeed (or at least learn from failures)?
Develop a systemic understanding of the interplay of technologies, institutions and
broad society
Our Vision is…
... to understand the interactions between people,
technologies, and society to shape and enact
sustainable strategies to improve and further
develop human, technological and natural
resources.

Learning objectives
We aim to develop MTEC Students to ...
… understand Technology, Management, AND Economics
… enhance their analytical skills to become systemic problem-solver
based on a solid scientific background
… develop decision making and leadership skills in an interdisciplinary and
intercultural environment
The ability to work in teams is at the core of innovation, and we will learn it in
practice thanks to the multicultural and interdisciplinary context of the
class.
By teaching MSc students together with MAS Students, we combine
analytical rigour with practical relevance within our programme.
