Are you a technologist or an engineer who is passionate about creating change for a sustainable development? On this master’s programme, you will meet students with an engineering background as well as students with a background in design or economy. Together, you demonstrate a breadth of different competences and experiences. This contributes to dynamic learning and broadened perspectives, which lead to more innovative solutions, from a theoretical perspective as well as from a practical one. The strive towards sustainable development involves both an industrial and a social transition of societies. Technologists and engineers who have in-depth understanding of other fields of knowledge will play an important part in this transition. As a student on the master’s programme Innovation through business, engineering, and design, you will be challenged with complex issues that force you think in new ways and reflect on how your unique competence can contribute to change. Through interaction with other fields of knowledge on common projects, you will gain in-depth insights into problem-solving that will make you prepared to meet the sustainability challenges of the future. The purpose of the programme is to give you the opportunity to develop your ability to initiate, lead, and work for the creation of innovations, together with others. You deepen your knowledge within the technical field while also collaborating and exchanging experiences and competence with other fields of knowledge. You also learn how different academic fields deal with specified knowledge and how to conduct scientific work. These aspects of the programme have been developed in a unique way by integrating academic subjects like systems engineering and design thinking. This gives the innovation process a complete and holistic perspective. What makes this programme unique is the collaboration between students from all three specialistions on the programme; design, business, and engineering. This means that you get several perspectives on the different projects and assignments that are carried out during the course of the programme, theoretical as well as practical perspectives. By learning how to collaborate with people who have different competences and experiences, you become attractive on the labour market due to your unique multidisciplinary competence. Show less
