Leaders with Key Insights

"Carnegie Mellon Silicon Valley's Software Management program presents students with a management perspective of the rapidly changing software industry. "Management" refers not just to managing people and projects, but also to the strategic management of issues that arise in a software business. For example, the class on Requirements Analysis covers not only traditional requirements management topics, but also analysis of market opportunities and competitive forces. The result is a unique program that gives our graduates key insights into software businesses and organizations, as well as the skills to become leaders in them.
