Course description
This course is designed to be a capstone experience by providing students with opportunities to integrate and apply the various learnings from the Innovation and Entrepreneurship Major in different contexts. Students will do this by deepening an experiential learning journey started in previous courses in the major. This is therefore an applied course with an impact focus. Students will work individually or in teams on projects started in previous courses or totally new projects by engaging in a short placement/consulting project in a start-up, commercial partner (technology commercialisation project), incubator or accelerator (locally or international). In this way the course caters for commercial, corporate and social entrepreneurship contexts. The deep immersion experience aims to move students closer to commercially-viable solutions as well as more advanced practice and thinking around the innovation and entrepreneurial processes. Students will have the opportunity to establish valuable networks with potential partners, investors, entrepreneurs and mentors in leading local and international startup ecosystems.
