Students who study global technology learn about how society, globalization and technology interact and affect each other. Training programs in global technology emphasize either public policy or international development perspectives.
They say that we live in the age of information, but it might be more accurate to say that we live in the age of technology. Every day, science conquers some new mountain. Breakthroughs happen at such a fantastic rate, that it is impossible to keep up with them all. New processor chips, better wireless communications, medical advancements, the list goes on and on.
If you would like to join in the technological revolution, there are many options available to you. You could specialize in an individual field (medicine, manufacturing, computer science, etc), or you could receive certification from a global technology program.
It really depends on what aspect of technology you want to enter. You could study marketing and business administration so that new technologies
are produced and advertising efficiently. You could study environmental policy to ensure that research and manufacturing are conducted safely and responsibly.
You could study world markets and consumer trends so as to make certain that your company is producing something that the people will buy.
As you can see, the potential paths are limitless. Technology is an incredibly broad field that encompasses science, sports, business, entertainment,
and politics. Can you think of a single industry or job that has not benefited from technology in some capacity? Suffice to say that if you understand
how technology works and how it can benefit society, you can work in just about any industry in any country.
