How do you build an organisation geared to innovation? And how, in a globalized world, do you protect your innovation, to make sure that you profit from it? In the MSc Business Administration - Strategic Innovation Management (MSc BA SIM) you will study the whole strategic process of managing innovations within companies and between companies. The programme is structured around the following four topics: (1) where does innovation come from; (2) how can a firm organise its activities for innovation; (3) how and with whom should a firm cooperate to maximise innovation; and (4) how can firms capture value from innovation? In doing so, the aim of this programme is to teach students how to manage a firm's innovation activities and to help turn ideas into profitable new processes, products, services and business models.
The MSc BA SIM is a strongly research-oriented programme since all our courses are designed and taught by a small group of top academic researchers. By introducing students to state-of-the-art academic research, the programme aims to give students the tools to properly understand, evaluate and solve real-life cases, and conduct their own research.
