What is Business Technology Management (BTM)?
BTM students graduate with management skills and IT skills to pursue careers such as Business Analysts, Consultants, Advisors, and IT Auditors, among many. Many have considered a double major in Business Technology Management (BTM) in a quest to enhance our specializations with the necessary IT capabilities.
Since all Commerce graduates need 4 (300-400 upper level) credits to graduate, Commerce students have the option to take 5 BTM courses to satisfy this criteria. Others have considered a Double Major in Business and Computer Science (BUCS) – the best of 2 worlds.
As a part of the UBC BizTech Network, we hope you will reach your goals, maximize your IT working knowledge and learn lifelong lessons from our distinguished speakers and panelists. Embark on a journey towards success.
So Why Wait? Be Involved. Be IT Savvy. Be a part of BizTech!
No previous IT experience is necessary
