Thunderbird designed the STEM-designated Global Digital Transformation concentration within the MGM degree program for students interested in augmenting their digital skills in the areas of management consulting, marketing, design and product development. Students can tailor this cutting-edge academic concentration to fit their specific learning goals. Through collaborative courses offered in partnership with other ASU colleges, students may combine the global management skills gained in the Master of Global Management with digital expertise to create a dual specialization that will continue to be in high demand throughout the global economy.
Digital transformation leadership is a highly sought-after expertise. However, technical skills need to be supplemented with a strong repertoire of management and collaboration skills. The Master of Global Management program with a concentration in global digital transformation expands students' choices of electives and fuses technological skills with managerial skills. In this concentration, students combine the global management skills of the Master of Global Management with digital expertise by specializing in the various pathways of global digital transformation through program coursework and applied learning projects guided by faculty experts.
As a bonus for international students, this program meets special F-1 international student status requirements. This means that international students who graduate with the global digital transformation concentration qualify for a 24-month extension to their Optional Practical Training in the United States beyond the 12 months already provided to international students in non-STEM degrees.
