Innovation and Entrepreneurship (MBA) (705N1)

15 credits, Level 7 (Masters)

Spring teaching

This module aims to provide you with a deep understanding of innovative and entrepreneurial processes. It offers you the opportunity to work in client-facing real-life settings.

In class, you will learn theories of innovation and entrepreneurship. You will then apply some of your learning during a real-life consulting project to resolve real client issues. Previous projects concerned:

• innovation in branding strategy
• market identification for pivoting during the pandemic
• identification of more sustainable market places.

This module complements the Sussex MBA offering by incorporating a powerful and demanding hands-on business experience, which can enrich your tool kit, and likely translate in greater employability.

We regularly review our modules to incorporate student feedback, staff expertise, as well as the latest research and teaching methodology. We’re planning to run these modules in the academic year 2025/26. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.

We’ll make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
