Programme overview

Do you want to change your world? Are you looking for a master's programme that will help you develop your ideas or enable you to design your own career path? Our innovation programmes will set you on your way.

We want to educate a new generation to create and grow innovative companies and social enterprises. We also want to help graduates bring innovative insights into existing organisations to better respond to the challenges that face us all. The MSc in Innovation and Entrepreneurship aims to develop the high-level skills and critical competencies you will need for successful innovation and entrepreneurship.

The innovators of the 21st century will bring together diverse disciplines to deliver innovative products, services and ways of living. They will be team players, with a breadth of skills that mean they can work across specialisms and cultures. They will be designers and entrepreneurs, and have a passion for style, efficiency and sustainability. Bristol’s innovation programmes are for people who want to pursue their subject specialism in a way that enables them to apply it.

The programme will teach you how to apply your subject-specific knowledge and skills to real-world challenges and key issues, such as health, education and the environment. Your final project will be your launchpad: creating an enterprise, putting together a detailed plan and working out how to take it forward and raise investment.

Careers

You will still be an expert in your undergraduate subject specialism and you will still be able to go on to careers that require an honours degree in that specialism. However you will also be equipped to do much more: to take your subject knowledge and apply it to real-world challenges, to innovate, to work in teams with people from different specialisms, backgrounds and cultures, and to create and implement entrepreneurial plans for taking ideas forward. These skills are highly valued by all organisations, whether large or small, local or global.

You may graduate as a member of a new venture that you and your fellow students have created. You may decide to create your own enterprise or join an existing one. Whatever you choose, you will be able to hit the ground running, building on your entrepreneurial and innovation experience. You will soon have the satisfaction of seeing your work starting to make an impact.

You will graduate with a portfolio of work that shows what you're able to do and you will have a network of professional contacts to draw on. You would also be able to go on to further study, either in the UK or internationally. Innovation students graduating from this programme have been successful in gaining Tier 1 (Graduate Entrepreneur) visas to continue to explore their ideas in the UK after graduation.
