BSAT 455, Management in Technological Organizations, provides an introduction to management approaches necessary in organizations specializing in engineering and technological innovations. Project management, research and development, industrial marketing and purchasing, and the organizational roles of engineers, technicians, and managers are explored.

Student performance decreased with the Robot Hand task in week 6, and increased inweek 7 with the Rover task. This suggests that the nature of the task itself may influence thepractices students employ. For instance, students rarely developed multiple solutions; when theydid, it occurred exclusively during the Rover activity.The Rover task had unique characteristics that likely encouraged innovative problem-solving.
