Students who complete the Managing Technology and Innovation Concentration are eligible to have the Concentration noted on their transcripts (please see the Bulletin for the list of requirements). Take advantage of this focused set of courses to deepen your overall understanding of: the innovation context, organizing for innovation (both large firm issues and start-ups), the process of innovation (team and project management), and systems design.  

These courses will better prepare you to engage with the Santa Clara University technology and innovation community.  Relevant University organizations include: the Leavey School of Business’ Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship; the SCU Center for Science, Technology, and Society; SCU's Tech Law Forum; and especially, the student-run Entrepreneurs’ Connection.

Full Fall CSTS Symposia Series Dates - First One Oct 9th

Sunday, Sep. 28, 2008

Here they are in one big bunch for your scheduling pleasure.  I will also post as the term progresses.  Note that I am not listing these on the Facebook "Events" calendar as they are not official Concentration events.  (Don't forget Oct 6th -- EA speaker -  which is getting top billing this quarter.)

CSTS appreciates it if you RSVP. Many of these events include a reception or lunch so they need to estimate numbers.  Please contact Eddie Lucas at elucas@scu.edu or 408-551-6090 to RSVP
