Overview

Science, Management and Innovation is a unique, two-year programme in which you first advance your knowledge in your scientific field and then apply it to a societal relevant business or policy question.

You will improve your ability to cooperate with actors from other disciplines. You will gain work experience outside of academia during your Master’s and develop skills including interviewing, oral presentation, cooperation and entrepreneurship.

Other requirements

General requirements

Science, Management and Innovation (SMI) is not a standalone Master's programme, but a one-year specialisation that you follow in the second year of one of our science Master's programmes. Direct admission to SMI is therefore not possible: you must first be admitted to a science Master's programme and complete the regular specialisation of that Master's in year 1, before you can switch to SMI in year 2. The admission requirements differ per specialisation.
