Subject: 53rd UCLA Engineering and Management Program
March 23-28, 1997, on the UCLA campus in Los Angeles.
For more than 40 years, UCLA Extension's Engineering and Management
Program has provided "how to" answers to the challenges that technical
managers face daily.
The program is designed for experienced first-level technical
supervisors, mid-level technical managers, technical professionals with high
advancement potential, and non-technical managers in technology-based
organizations.
A special benefit is the opportunity for participants to personalize
their own curriculum by selecting four courses, each one meeting two hours
per day. Participants may choose from 24 course offerings to address these
and other important management questions:
o How can I develop products and services that will have a market?
o How can I use technology as one of the drivers of organizational
change?
o How can I influence persons who do not report directly to me or to my
boss?
o How can I create a culture that nourishes creativity, customer
service, risk taking, and accountability?
o How can I successfully communicate in-house with peers, subordinates,
and superiors, and with global customers and suppliers?
o How can I carry out my managerial role in the face of major change in
the organization?
o How can I prepare myself for emerging trends and an uncertain future?
o How can I better use or change aspects of my style of leadership to
get desired results?
o How can I identify and eliminate costly, nonvalue-added activities?
Instructors are drawn from the UCLA faculty, other universities, and the
business community. All combine research and theory with practice and
application.
The program advisory committee, which includes technical managers
from Hewlett Packard, Trillium Digital Systems, TRW, Sandia National
Laboratories, Beckman Instruments, Amgen, Telegenics, Rockwell, and
ARCO, actively participates in the selection and evaluation of the
courses.
The program fee of $1,995 includes all texts and materials for courses
in which the participant is enrolled, five continental breakfasts, five
luncheons, social events, parking at UCLA, and use of University facilities
and equipment.
