College of TechnologyDepartment of Information and Logistics TechnologyChair: Dr. Michael Gibson Master of Science in Technology Project ManagementAdvisor: Dr. Gary RichardsonThe degree plan for a Master of Science degree in Technology Project Management is designed specifically to prepare individuals with undergraduate degrees in technology disciplines for responsible leadership roles in the technology- and information-based workplaces. The core courses provide in-depth preparation in project management skills. Being able to plan and manage technology projects is an increasingly important skill for those with a technical background. Within Technology Project Management, students have a choice of three tracks. First, the Information Systems Security specialization equips technology professionals to assess the security needs of information and network systems and then to manage the implementation and maintenance of the recommended security solutions. Second, the Logistics Technology specialization equips technology professionals to manage and coordinate the inventory and materials handling functions of an organization, ranging from purchasing, inventory control, shipping and delivery, to transportation. Finally, the Technology Project Management degree plan equips technology professionals with an in depth study of project management. In this degree plan, students work with a faculty advisor to create a 12 credit directed area of study. Courses are also available in clinical research.
