- Description/content
- Your studies are an individual learning journey towards developing a sustainable, socially entrepreneurial mindset and way of acting. In the six project-based learning modules of the Social Innovation Project (SIP), this journey begins with exploring your own personality to form a team and analyse a complex social problem of your own choosing. Building on this, you will develop and test sustainable social ideas, which you will refine into a commercially viable concept using design thinking methodology. This concept is then evaluated with an impact-oriented approach and potential for scaling and put into practice with a focus on viable financing options. Elective modules—freely chosen to suit your individual specialisation—and in-depth modules such as Designing Future Economies, Social Innovation & Digital Transformation, Stakeholder Engagement & Marketing of Social Innovations as well as intercultural experiences will support and enrich your path.
