Introduction to Innovation and Entrepreneurship

In an age where technology is disrupting the world of work, every student needs to be prepared. This course will allow participants to learn Innovation and Entrepreneurship fundamentals and help them become more “future proof” in their careers. The course will focus on how innovation can be developed and enhanced and then will look at the world of entrepreneurship and how it can be relevant for every one of the participants.

Throughout the course, we will introduce and practice the Lean Startup Model, focusing on identifying real problems for people and then finding solutions for those problems. Students will watch short videos, use interactive applications, answer online quizzes, and develop an idea for a venture (business, social, or design) as an online course. The course will end with a project that presents a model for a real-world venture.
