Executive MBA in Management of Technology

Entrepreneurship & Innovation

Class Profile – 2012

26 highly innovative & entrepreneurial participants



~ Targeting Entrepreneurship & Innovation ~

Executive MBA in Management of Technology – MoT

Objectives

To develop and stimulate entrepreneurship and intrapreneurship competencies;

To ensure success in innovation by fostering a multidisciplinary approach to the

conception, industrialization and commercialization of products or services;

To provide insights into the constraints and interactions within the technological,

business, international and social environments

Program

The program is made up of three distinctive but complementary parts:

1. Training at both the University of Lausanne - HEC and the Ecole Polytechnique

Fédérale of Lausanne - EPFL, (September 2011 to June 2012)

2. Study Trip to China (mid June to early July 2012)

3. Practical work within a company (August to November 2012)

The training in Lausanne focuses on:

4. Management and Entrepreneurship

5. Technology and Innovation Deployment

The teaching is based on a concrete, pragmatic approach with extensive use of

case studies. It also includes group work for the conception, development and

commercialization of new products, and more particularly the creation and growth

of new ventures by teams.

The study trip and training period in China, with top universities, like the

University of Peking, provides a perspective for doing business in one of the

fastest growing area in the world.

The practical part of the program consists of an internship project, which can be

performed in pairs, within a corporation or a new venture. The individual or the

pair, usually made up of an engineer and a manager, conducts a project which

must of strategic importance and innovative for the hosting entity or for potential

investors.





Curriculum

Features

• Development of real business plans by multidisciplinary teams

• Study trip with enterprise visits and highly regarded universities in China

• 3 month project possibly performed in pairs within a company/new venture

• High level and intensive program, but possibility to maintain 60-80% of professional activities

while training takes place in Lausanne, usually on Friday and Saturday

• Management modules are shared with the EMBA “in Management & corporate Finance” and “in

Healthcare Management” of HEC

Flexible offering

• Two options: Innovation & High-Tech or Innovation & Life Sciences

• As a lighter alternative to the EMBA in MoT, a “Diploma of Advanced Study” (DAS) in MoT can

be obtained by following the MoT curriculum, without the two Management blocs

• Modules in the Innovation & Life Sciences bloc are open to participants not enrolled to the

EMBA in MoT. When 5 modules are successfully completed by those participants, a Certificate of

Advanced Study (CAS) in “Management of Biotech, Medtech & Pharma Ventures” can be obtained.
