Career evidence
Illinois Tech’s current ITM materials describe management and technology career paths and use BLS occupation data to illustrate demand, but the program page does not publish an MS ITM graduating-cohort placement rate or starting-salary statistic. MSITM.com therefore treats these as career-path/labor-market signals rather than alumni outcome data.
Application deadlines
Illinois Tech’s current master’s schedule lists January 31 as Priority 1, April 15 as Priority 2 and July 15 as the regular fall deadline for both domestic and international master’s applicants. Applications completed later may still be processed, but a decision in time for the intended term is not guaranteed.
