Management of Technology: Roadmapping & Development
Technology is drastically reshaping the business world. And in this world marked by tight competition, organizations are required to innovate and develop at the speed of light to remain ahead – regardless of what industry they belong to, or which countries they operate in.
This exhilarating environment requires leaders who adapt, learn continuously, and understand that technology is key to take their organizations to a more beneficial, optimized, and connected reality.
Our online program, Technology Roadmapping, provides an overview of the principles, methods, and management tools for technologically enabled systems and organizations.
During the program, you will walk the path of technology through its history, its different tools and methods, its fundamental limits, and the theory and empirical evidence for technology evolution over time. All this is supported by a rich set of examples and practical exercises from aerospace and other domains such as transportation, energy, communications, agriculture, and medicine.
By the end of the program, equipped with this knowledge, you’ll be able to lead the implementation of technology in your organization.

MIT Professional Education offers a number of benefits for participants who successfully complete the Management of Technology: Roadmapping and Development program:
MIT Professional Education
Fire Hydrant Award
Jerome Wiesner, president of MIT (1971-1980), described the experience of studying at MIT as “drinking from a fire hydrant.” Living and learning at MIT requires endurance, consistency, and a great deal of determination.
Our professional programs reflect and instill these essential capabilities. The “Fire Hydrant Award” was born as a way to acknowledge those students who demonstrate a constant thirst for learning and the ability to put knowledge into practice. This award is also given to participants who embody MIT’s core values: excellence, meritocracy, courage, humility, curiosity, and a passion for problem-solving and improving society.
INSTRUCTOR
Professor Olivier de Weck
Professor of Aeronautics and Astronautics and Engineering Systems, MIT
Olivier de Weck is a leader in systems engineering research. He focuses on how complex man-made systems such as aircraft, spacecraft, automobiles, printers, and critical infrastructures are designed and how they evolve over time. His main emphasis is on strategic properties that have the potential to maximize lifecycle value. Since 2001 his group has developed novel quantitative methods and tools that explicitly consider manufacturability, flexibility, commonality, and sustainability among other characteristics. Prof. de Weck’s teaching emphasizes excellence, innovation, and bridging of theory and practice.
Prof. de Weck holds degrees in industrial engineering from ETH Zurich and aerospace systems engineering from MIT. Before joining MIT, he was a liaison engineer and later engineering program manager on the F/A-18 aircraft program at McDonnell Douglas.
