CAREER OPPORTUNITIES

Bachelor of Science in Technology Communication Management (BS-TCM). The new TCM curriculum envisions its graduates to be Technopreneurs, Multimedia Communicators, and Communication Managers:

Creating new products and services that have a positive impact on society is what Technopreneurs do by merging technology prowess with entrepreneurial talent and skills.
Careers for Multimedia Communicators vary widely – from web designing, film and video editing, animating, to being a multimedia journalist who creates content for social media and brands.
Messages both in internal and external communication of a company have to be consistent and engaging. A TCM graduate, as a communication manager or director, can take care of that.
