Course description
This course will introduce students to the frameworks and theory behind innovation and leadership in an engineering environment and will allow students to develop and demonstrate an understanding of innovation in the context of an engineering practice. The course will enable students to identify and apply the elements of the innovation lifecycle and develop a systematic approach to managing innovation. Ultimately students will develop the skills to engage and influence innovative practice in their own engineering contexts providing the foundation for future leadership roles.
