The Technology Management program spreads throughout one to two years, with one block seminar during the lecture-free period and two regular semesters. Technology Management is offered as a supplemental program to a traditional Bachelor's or Master's degree and thus represents an additional qualification. The program aims to complement university education with a particular focus on practice. The presentational phases occur in Munich and primarily in the evening or on weekends to ensure compatibility with primary studies. The content focuses on trend research, [[Product Development|product development]], [[entrepreneurship]], and [[soft skills]]. Due to frequently changing elective courses, the core program is always complemented by new electives, such as [[design thinking]], hardware prototyping, [[social entrepreneurship]] or [[data science]]. A stay abroad is required for up to four months in the form of an internship with partner companies such as Infosys or a semester abroad. Partner universities include [[University of California, Berkeley|UC Berkeley]], [[Columbia University]], [[Massachusetts Institute of Technology]], [[ETH Zurich]] and [[HEC Montréal]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Personal Growth|periodical=CDTM|publisher=|url=https://www.cdtm.de/study/personal-growth/|url-status=|format=|access-date=|archive-url=|archive-date=|last=Nikolai Kraler|date=|year=|language=en-US|pages=|quote=}}</ref>
