Our MSc Business Innovation and Entrepreneurial Management will give you the necessary skills to become a successful and responsible innovator and entrepreneur. Your learning on this programme will be experiential: you will engage with the latest thinking and have multiple opportunities to apply this in practice.
You will benefit from academic knowledge combined with the experience and expertise of our Entrepreneurs in Residence, a group of business leaders who have successfully started and grown their own businesses. If you want to start your own venture, are looking to assume a leadership role in your family’s business or want to innovate in an existing organisation in any sector, then this is the programme for you.
Learn by doing
We believe that an experiential approach to teaching and learning is the best way for innovators and entrepreneurs to learn. Our modules are designed with the assumption that learning and skill development come from doing.
You will learn how to be creative and innovative in your response to key global issues that require entrepreneurial solutions. You will build your capability to recognise opportunities and make critical decisions on how to best exploit them. In this way, you will develop the confidence and skill to present ideas clearly, negotiate effectively, and convince key stakeholders in high-stakes decisions.
