Other Initiatives
This new Mentorship Program is one of several initiatives related to IT education at Sauder. In particular, as suggested by the Advisory Board, we are also in the process of changing our option name from MIS to BTM (Business Technology Management) to better reflect the current learning objectives of the program and the emerging role of Information and Communication Technology in Business.
Details of some additional initiatives will be announced in the near future.
