Ryerson MBA

The MMSc in Management of Technology and Innovation is a Master’s degree for people interested in a research career in industry or academia. The curriculum is coursework-based plus a thesis. It emphasizes the development of sound qualitative and quantitative research skills, oriented toward research in the area of technology management and innovation. Students apply these skills to write a thesis that makes an original contribution to the theory or empirical study of technology/innovation management, giving graduates a strong foundation for doctoral studies or a career in research. MMSc students take three required courses, a research seminar, three elective courses and a five credit thesis.
