9725914 Khalil The University of Miami will organize a workshop to examine the industry's demand for education in the Management of Technology (MOT) field. The fast pace of technological change and the globalization of the marketplace are forcing industry to change. These changes require personnel who are educated and capable of dealing with the emerging paradigms of technology and business. Educational programs have been slow in their response to the need for MOT education. They continue to compartmentalize education into either engineering or business schools, and barriers motivated primarily by turf protection continue to exist. The proposed workshop will identify the needs that justify the creation of MOT programs as well as the rationale for revamping existing curricula in science, engineering, and business schools. The participants will examine whether there is a demand for MOT education, and if so, what its content should be. They also will examine whether education is meeting that demand. This approach is based on listening to industry. Representatives from major industrial corporations will be invited to the workshop. In preparation for it, they will be asked to attend or to send a representative to the Seventh International Conference on Management of Technology in Orlando, Florida in February 1998. Each invitee will be asked to prepare a short position paper summarizing his/her industry's demand for education and training in MOT. A follow-up one-day workshop to discuss responses and summarize ideas will be held in late March or early April, and a report will be published in the summer of 1998. It is postulated that if there is an industrial demand and the demands are clarified, universities are likely to respond.

小行星9725914 迈阿密大学将组织一个研讨会，以研究该行业对技术管理（MOT）领域教育的需求。 技术变革的快速步伐和市场的全球化正在迫使行业发生变化。 这些变化需要受过教育并有能力处理新出现的技术和商业模式的人员。 教育计划对MOT教育的需求反应缓慢。 他们继续将教育划分为工程或商学院，主要出于地盘保护的障碍继续存在。 拟议中的研讨会将确定证明MOT计划的创建是合理的需求，以及修改科学，工程和商学院现有课程的理由。 与会者将研究是否有对MOT教育的需求，如果有，其内容应该是什么。 他们还将研究教育是否满足了这一需求。 这种做法的基础是听取工业界的意见。 各大工业公司的代表将应邀参加讲习班。 为筹备这次会议，将请它们出席或派一名代表出席1998年2月在佛罗里达奥兰多举行的第七次国际技术管理会议。 每位受邀者将被要求准备一份简短的立场文件，概述其所在行业对MOT教育和培训的需求。 3月底或4月初将举行一次为期一天的后续讲习班，讨论答复和总结意见，1998年夏季将发表一份报告。 据推测，如果有工业需求，并明确了需求，大学很可能会做出回应。
