📖Program Curriculum

Programme structure and content
During the first year, cases and examples of practical implementation are important vehicles to accomplish your learning processes.

In the second year, the competencies you acquire are implemented in a venture-creation project and a master’s thesis project. The venture-creation process links a new product or service idea with a team of astute and entrepreneurial students and provides top quality teaching and coaching throughout the journey. These projects can be ideas generated by you and your fellow students, or ideas that arise externally, and could for example focus on business ideas where service components are important, environmentally sustainable products, or services or ICT-related projects.
