Through North Carolina State
University's Technology: Education and Commercialization
(TEC) Program, graduate and postgraduate students from
business, engineering, science, and other non-technical
fields form interdisciplinary teams to screen, assess, and
develop technologies and products for commercial
applications. Advised by experienced faculty members and
business professionals, the student teams follow a year-long
systematic approach to formulate product concepts; to
consider technical, legal, financial, marketing,
organizational, and manufacturing issues; and to develop
commercialization strategies. TEC's educational focus
transcends traditional business and technical instruction.
In the program's high tech environment, business graduates
enhance their product development and technology management
skills. Science and engineering students master essential
business tools and entrepreneurial concepts. Other
non-technical graduates gain experience in today's
technology-based business culture.
