Purpose |
The purpose of the Management of Technology degree is to prepare our students

Managers are in unison about the need
for effective communication in the work force. In the technical work
force, there is no doubt that it is an essential skill. The writing / communications
component at Wentworth Institute of Technology's BMT program has been developed
to respond to the need by instilling in our students those skills necessary
for them to communicate, both orally and in writing, in their classes, in
the workplace, and in their community. It is our goal to continue to provide
a solid grounding in the BMT program while exploring opportunities for enriching,
expanding, and improving our students education. |
