12 Testimonials from Graduates The programme of Technology Economics and Management combines technology economics with management science. The programme enables the students to have in-depth understanding of technical ingredients of construction engineering and obtain capabilities of comprehensively analysing benefits and characteristics of construction. Synchronously, the skills of management lay down the foundation of effective implementation. It is a cross-discipline programme, which deliberately combines theories with real world practice. In the academic studies, based upon solid theoretical knowledge, I engaged in a number of important research programmem with the support of the school and the supervisors. My capabilities of comprehensive analysis and project management were significantly strengthened. This experience exerted long term positive influence in my career development. Limei Mao, China Jinmao Holdings Group Limited My choice of Master of Corporate Management at Tongji SEM was driven by my pursuit of becoming a business leader. Before entering Tongji SEM, I had developed the skills of high-level thinking through four years study of Sociology. But I still lacked necessary business management knowledge, including finance, accounting, HR management and marketing. Master of Corporate Management would perfectly help me bridge the gap by offering comprehensive general management courses. What impressed me most about the programme was its international exposure. Besides completing the courses in Tongji University, I also studied at the Technical University of Munich, where I had the chance to strengthen my capability of critical thinking and cross-cultural communication. These experiences proved to be highly valuable for my career development in an international environment. Another highlight of the programme is its diversified community. Though majoring in general management, each student had a particular focus, including finance, marketing, HR management, etc. I would easily find a classmate to turn to for any business issue I encountered during study. Scattered in different major industries in China, these classmates have also formed a strong network, which is helpful for my work as a management consultant and entrepreneur.
