Creative Innovation and Entrepreneurship

University of Bristol

Overview

For example:

• Starting up your career and ideas in a professional supported environment
• Undertaking applied commercial projects in collaborative teams
• Learning human-centred techniques for designing and developing ideas of real value

We welcome students from any creative, arts, or humanities discipline or background who are thinking about building a career out of their practice either in existing organisations or start-ups.

This Creative Innovation and Entrepreneurship programme from University of Bristol shares much of its teaching with our other MSc and MA Innovation and Entrepreneurship programmes but has a specific focus on the Creative Industries and creative entrepreneurship.

This course will develop the high-level skills and critical competencies needed for successful organisational innovation and entrepreneurship, through a largely practice-orientated educational approach based on collaborative teamwork across disciplines and cultures.

During the programme, you get opportunities to work alongside creative businesses and agencies to develop a deep understanding of their opportunities and challenges.

Careers

“Workers with design skills are 47% more productive in their jobs and whilst already contributing £209bn to the UK economy and that value is growing at a faster rate than the rest of the economy.” (Design Council, 2018).

This programme will prepare you to create your own entrepreneurial venture or join an existing one. Whatever you choose, you will be able to hit the ground running.

You will graduate with a portfolio of work that shows what you can do, you may have an emergent venture, and you will have a network of contacts to draw on whether you are starting-up or seeking innovative roles. International students graduating from the pre-existing MSc Innovation and Entrepreneurship programme have been successful in exploring their ideas in the UK after graduation.
