Postgraduate

This subject explores the nature of innovation and entrepreneurship in service industries. It examines creative management theories and applications of entrepreneurial and innovative thinking, activity and advocacy for change within specific industry organisations. Students work on case studies to develop an understanding of the challenges facing specific organisations and their ability to move through a life cycle from new entrant, maturity and decline to reinvention. This includes examining skills in identifying, harnessing and further developing resources from public and private sources, as well as developing appropriate products and services for trading. Students develop a business case approach for investment in an innovative or entrepreneurial product or service within a specific service organisation.
