Your programme overview in the Master's online study Programme Innovation and Entrepreneurship
Through the combination of innovation and entrepreneurship, the study programme creates an optimal basis for you to get started in the start-up scene. In modules such as Business Model Design and Digital Business Models, you will learn how to develop successful business models. Both traditional and digital business model development play a central role in this. With courses such as Design Thinking, Lean Start Up and Agile Project Management, you equip yourself with the latest management skills for innovation. You also have the opportunity to focus on the Tech track – e.g. in Data Science and Analytics or Big Data – or in the Biz track - e.g. in Corporate Finance and Investment, Performance Measurement, Consumer Behaviour and Brand Management, Leadership or Change. So nothing stands in the way of your mission to bring innovations with potential to the big time.
Study model and prices for the Master's online study programme in Innovation and Entrepreneurship
Depending on your personal or professional situation, full-time study is not always easy to manage. That is why we have also developed part-time programmes for all our degrees, which offer flexible and longer study periods. This way, you can study alongside your job or during your time off, whether at home or abroad. The content of the different models is identical. Depending on the study model, we will adjust your tuition fees accordingly. With the part-time variants, your weekly study workload is reduced.
Can't finish your degree in the allotted time? No problem! We will develop the right study model for everyone. If you realise that you need more time, you can easily switch to another study model with three months’ notice before the end of the month. These are our different study models:
Full-Time
Duration 24 Months
Perfect for students who want to hit the ground running and shorten the period of study by increasing their studying pace.
Part-Time I
Duration 36 Months
Excellent for talented all-rounders who want to give their studies everything they’ve got while holding down a job and keeping down their monthly costs at the same time.
Part-Time II
