Course Summary

Entrepreneurship and innovation play vital roles in knowledge creation and exploitation to generate value and drive sustainable economic, social, technological and organisational development. Processes and behaviours central to entrepreneurship and innovation are equally important to new and early stage ventures, and within existing organisations.

Why Edinburgh

Our MSc in Entrepreneurship and Innovation is an exciting programme that leverages the research and teaching strengths within the Business School’s Entrepreneurship and Innovation Group, and draws upon the rich entrepreneurial system within the University and wider Edinburgh area.

About the programme

The programme is designed to complement research-led and theoretically-informed education, with a clear focus on the development of practical skills and opportunities for the application of knowledge to real-life organisational situations and issues.

It combines theoretical rigour with a unique focus on experiential and practical learning through direct engagement with organisations through project-based courses.

This exciting masters programme enables you to develop the knowledge and skills to identify and screen opportunities, and implement them within new and established organisations.

Modules

This course seeks to develop students personal knowledge and skills for the in-company project work, writing and presenting reports (own and for project 'client'), and ultimately conducting and writing research for dissertation. Whilst this course provides opportunities for students to learn about the wide range of research approaches and methods in the broad field of management, it will particularly focus on the issues and challenges of conducting research in the entrepreneurship and innovation context, for instance studying complex technological projects. It also enables students to critically examine various research approaches adopted in other research proposals and describe their strengths and limitations.
