Technology Management & Entrepreneurship

Accelerate your tech start-up and learn how to manage a technology-based company at Canada's most entrepreneurial university. UNB's Master of Technology Management and Entrepreneurship (MTME) program combines technological thinking with practical business skills to promote an entrepreneurial mindset in students with science, computer science and engineering backgrounds. Students enjoy the project-based structure of the program which is highly focused on experiential learning.

Our small, collaborative classes are held in the J. Herbert Smith Centre for Technology Management and Entrepreneurship, a centre with over 25 years in the ever-changing world of technology. Students discover the market potential of their ideas and learn how to commercialize research with access to a machine shop, welding facilities and 3D printers. Our graduates have gone on to start successful companies of their own making. Others choose to work in Fortune 500 companies, government and not-for-profits.

5. Submit your documents

You'll need to mail us the following:

Official or notarized transcripts/grades for all secondary or high school, colleges and universities you have attended.

• All applicants must disclose any prior attendance at a university or other post-secondary institution in Canada or abroad, regardless of whether they are seeking transfer credit. Failure to disclose this information may result in a rejection of the student’s application or subsequent suspension from UNB.

If your transcripts are not in English, you are required to send the official transcript and provide a certified translation.

If applicable, submit the results from any academic tests you have taken, such as SAT, ACT, Cambridge ‘O’ and ‘A’ levels, CXC or others.

If you are applying for direct admission to an undergraduate program at UNB and are not exempt from our English language requirements, submit your English language proficiency test score. UNB accepts IELTS; MELAB; TOEFL iBT; TOEFL (paper-based); TOEFL (computer-based); MELAB; CAEL; Pearson Vue, and CanTest.

If you are applying to transfer from a post-secondary institution to UNB, you must submit course outlines to be assessed for credit transfer. A course outline (also known as a syllabus) is a document that typically provides a detailed summary of topics to be covered in a course, titles of reading materials, and the grading policy. All course outlines must be provided in English.

Note: If you are over the age of 21, you are considered a mature student and must submit a resume of your education and work experience since high school. These particular documents can be uploaded to your UNB application account.
