November 14, 2006, New York City – Polytechnic Institute of NYU in New York City announces the launch of AMOT (Accelerated Management of Technology), a new Master’s program in the Management of Technology. AMOT is designed for recent college graduates and for individuals with limited work experience.

AMOT is a part-time evening program, and takes place primarily at 55 Broad Street in Manhattan. Students are admitted in the Fall and Spring semesters. The AMOT program can be completed in 3 semesters.

The AMOT Program is a sophisticated and unique educational experience that will help jump start and differentiate careers. It offers a state-of-the-art education that explores on the challenges and issues confronting managers and professionals in a continually evolving business landscape.

In today’s complex and technology-rich business environment, it is essential that managers understand not only the elements of traditional managerial domains, such as economics and finance. They must also have deep knowledge of the all-important innovative process. The AMOT program explores the various factors which go into creating an innovative organization. By combining the latest thinking with best practices, the AMOT program gives its students an edge in becoming leaders in their fields.

“The AMOT program is designed for students who want to enhance their education with a degree which will enable them to enter the managerial ranks of their organizations and make significant contributions to them”, says Professor Nina Ziv, Director of the AMOT program. “With our superior faculty and our well designed courses and curricular materials, the AMOT program provides students with an outstanding educational experience. The AMOT program also draws on the resources of New York City’s burgeoning technology community to enrich the curriculum and introduce students to leading edge concepts and ideas,” added Professor Ziv. 

The Department of Technology Management is part of Polytechnic Institute of NYU, the premier learning, research and development hub in science, engineering and technology management in the New York City/Tri-State Region.
