If you’re interested in becoming an entrepreneur or would like to work in more traditional careers in consulting and IT management, this programme will help you develop and implement new ideas and digital strategies in your organisation.
The final-year module Digital Innovation Project 2 allows you to apply what you have learnt throughout the course to an innovation project as the culmination of your studies. Guest lectures from IT and innovation-led companies will explain and illustrate the theory you’ve learned by showing how it works in practice.
Each year comprises core modules with opportunities to choose from a wide variety of elective modules offered by WBS and other departments across the University to tailor your studies. Second-year modules touch upon digital innovation in established organisations and in entrepreneurial contexts as well as some more traditional information systems topics. In your final year, you have more flexibility, with five core modules and four elective modules. You can choose your second and third-year electives from a variety of business and economics modules, and other subject areas such as a foreign language.
