Entrepreneurship and Business Design, MSc

 This degree is delivered through real-life innovation management, venture creation and action-based pedagogy, where innovation and entrepreneurship are experienced and not only taught in classrooms. You will not merely learn a topic or prepare for a career, but learn by acting, creating and reflecting. At Chalmers, you will be given the opportunity to assess innovative ideas, start companies, drive social entrepreneurship projects or work on entrepreneurial projects within and between large organizations.

In this internationally renowned master's programme you will be able to test and develop your entrepreneurial skills and by working close to classmates, teachers and other professionals, learn not only about innovation and entrepreneurship but also about yourself by exploring your part in the bigger picture.

Through understanding complexity and finding needs, problems, and solutions, you will become a key player in the realization and commercialization of ideas, technologies and innovations. You will be bridging the gap between research and business management, making sure both are utilized in the best possible way while creating new value.

One of the goals of the programme is to co-create technology ventures. The creation of new ventures is done together with idea partners. Over the past 20 years, more than 80 ventures have been co-founded by our students within the programme – in renewable energy, medical devices, medical treatments, and new materials, just to name a few areas. More than 70% of these startups are still running. Students also engage in social entrepreneurship projects, work entrepreneurially within established organizations and help identify and package intellectual assets into more tangible innovation.
