Overview
From Ideas to Successful Products
New products do not come to life by coincidence or spontaneous flashes of inspiration. They require innovation, product & engineering managers who find ideas tailored to customer requirements, evaluate and select them correctly, and support their successful implementation. Their work is the key to success, and their creative minds are therefore in great demand in companies. They work at the interfaces between marketing, design and technology – turning ideas into successful products.
Career
Graduates of the Bachelor's degree programme in Innovation, Product and Engineering Management at the University of Applied Sciences Upper Austria are equipped to work in diverse roles—from product development and design engineering to marketing, customer relations, and project management.
