Innovation Sciences

Innovation creates new opportunities that lead to sustainable economic growth and can help tackle serious societal problems relating to sustainability, climate change and health. During our two-year Innovation Sciences Master's programme, you will learn how to transform new ideas into marketable innovations, and how to manage and promote innovation processes within companies as well as in society at large. 

Creating a culture of innovations is one of society's greatest challenges. As an Innovation Sciences student you will analyse the various stages of the innovation process with a view to developing effective strategies for promoting innovation. The aim of this programme is to give you an insight into the nature of technological change and the conditions affecting innovation and knowledge production. It also aims to give you an understanding of the societal uptake of innovations and the role of companies and other stakeholders such as research institutes, governements and citizen initiatives in the wider innovation system. 

This programme is aimed at students with a background in technology, natural sciences, enginering or life sciences that wish to extend their technical background with knowledge about technology and innovation management and societal processes driving innovation.
