The design of an on-line masters in technology management: a collaborative effort

Abstract

The paper describes the views of the principals involved in the initial stages of planning and development of an MSc in Technology Management programme in Ireland prior to its commencement, and subsequently elicits the views of these principals after the programme¿s implementation. The Atlantic University Alliance (AUA), a collaboration of three Irish universities, was the vehicle for developing and managing this programme. In the paper we discuss issues relating to the planning and development from initiation through to early implementation of the programme within a collaborative intrauniversity environment.
