Course overview

This programme lays a solid foundation for working with project management, organisational development and broader issues of societal development.

In this programme you are trained to reflect and act in consideration of the relationship between culture and leadership, working with broad coalitions of stakeholders, cross-sector collaboration and social innovation.

This programme consists of two major courses:
1) Project management and organisation deals with models and strategies for organising projects and working with organisational development and challenges of sustainable development. You will undertake group work, look at inter-organisational projects and develop an essay or project work.
2) Social entrepreneurship and innovation provides you with an understanding of entrepreneurial processes and innovation; communication, networks and collaboration; community and citizenship; and resource and support structures. At the end of this course you will research and write your Master’s thesis.

Career opportunities

After graduation, you may work in different areas depending on your specialisation and interests. The skills acquired are relevant for a manager in municipal, regional or governmental agencies, in the private and non-profit sector, or as a consultant. The entrepreneurial content of the course stimulates you to initiate projects, organisations or businesses that work towards sustainable development.
