One of the fundamental aims of this Masters is to equip you with all the necessary skills you need to become a successful entrepreneur.

You will not only learn problem-solving skills, critical thinking and design-thinking, but also management, leadership and business strategy. What’s more, we encourage our students to lead the way as next generation innovators. You will have plenty of opportunities to come up with new and innovative ideas and implement them. 

Finally, you will leave the Masters with a firm understanding of the latest developments and trends in the digital world – something that will be crucial to your future success. You will gain knowledge of technologies such as email marketing, SEO/SEM, social media, apps and much more. 

3. A project-based, practical approach to learning

We take a project-based approach to learning. Our professors give students full autonomy, flexibility and control over projects – and are there to offer support and guidance when needed. 

There are a number of benefits to this approach:

Real-life experience

Build up a portfolio of work

Any successful project requires effective collaboration and communication between team members – something that students are likely to be doing in their future workplace.
