Innovative thinking and entrepreneurial behaviour in a global economy are in the DNA of the MSc Innovation Management and Entrepreneurship at Kingston Business School. Students will develop and utilise their creativity and problem solving skills and lead others on starting, growing and managing successfully innovative firms.
This course prepares students to start their own business or work in entrepreneurship roles. Examine management systems for innovation projects, financing and growth strategies, while getting hands-on experience, meeting entrepreneurs, start-ups, tech giants and investors.
The Policy pathway covers the main policy instruments for supporting start-up creation and increasing innovation in both established and newly created companies, and public sector organisations.
Kingston is among just 5% of the world's business schools to be accredited by AACSB International. This course includes experiential visits to innovation exhibitions, multinational organisations and the entrepreneurial team in City Hall. Students may enter competitions such as Bright Ideas and the London Mayor's Entrepreneur start-up.
The professional placement year takes place after the full-time year. It allows students to do a 12-month work placement as part of their course. The work placement is an assessed part of the course and is therefore covered by a Student Route visa. Students will graduate ready to either start their own business or working in intrapreneurship roles such as an innovation manager, innovation consultant, change agent, chief innovation officer, business development or product manager. Students will be set-up to work in start-ups, SMEs, multinational organisations, governmental organisations, embassies and NGOs. Job titles of recent graduates include project manager, co-founder, social entrepreneur, entrepreneurship and incubation manager, and PhD candidate.
