The MAS ETH MTEC/BWI

The ETH Manager: MAS ETH MTEC/BWI

The “Master of Advanced Studies in Management, Technology, and Economics” was introduced in 1989 as a continuing education course of study in management and production sciences and established under the name BWI. Today, the university continuing education programme is taught as a demanding MAS and is a four-semester programme for people in the work force that builds on the student’s expertise in technical and natural sciences. The objective is to develop a holistic, interdisciplinary mindset. This programme enables participants to take on demanding professional management tasks.

Successfully Flexible

The MAS ETH MTEC offers a multi-faceted and attractive range of lectures. From the first to the third semester, the programme teaches professional competencies in the following areas: General Management, Human Resource Management, Strategy, Technology and Innovation Management, Information Management, Operations Management, Quantitative and Qualitative Methods, Economics and Finance. A minimum number of subjects must be taken in these competency areas, which are supplemented by elective subjects. This way students can set personal focal points and create a flexible curriculum. The range of lectures is exceptionally large. In the fourth semester students write a Master’s thesis addressing a real-world problem of a company.

Networked – Not only in Thinking

Stimulating presentations about special topics explain the theoretic background. Exercises with case studies and guest lectures serve to deepen and ensure practical relevance. The Master’s programme is taught in English. The test language is English and partially German.
