Mission Statement
 

UMT’s primary goal is to provide management and technology education to the public and to promote academic excellence in higher education by:

  • developing skills, competencies, excellence, professionalism, and responsibilities to enhance our students’ careers
  • selecting excellent faculty and scholars who focus on technology application and management theory and practice from a global perspective
  • adopting and updating curricula and instructional materials continually to reflect state-of-the-art knowledge and best management and technology practices
  • employing advanced teaching methods, tools and technology to improve students’ learning process
  • benefiting the local community and society by supplying well-educated and well-prepared management and technology professionals.

We view the achievement of these five goals as the cornerstone of effective management education in today’s dynamic and turbulent world.

Management today is a global undertaking. It is carried out in a wide variety of settings. Successful managers understand and appreciate the implications of diversity in the areas of culture, religion, politics, economics, and business practices.

Today’s brutally competitive environment demands excellence, where only the fittest survive. Effective management and technology education conveys to students the importance of being excellent, professional, and responsible.

Knowledge is ever changing. Today’s news may be ancient history tomorrow. The life span of novel ideas and practices is shrinking rapidly. Effective management and technology education keeps up with current practice.

Contemporary information technology enables students to access information as never before, in both a quantitative and qualitative sense. Furthermore, this same technology has liberated us from geographic constraints.

Effective management practices and technology applications allow public and private organizations to provide services and products more efficiently and inexpensively. These practices can thus improve the quality of life in society.

UMT is committed to operating as a high-quality educational institution and expanding its academic offerings to capture the latest developments in management and technology.
