Course content and
structure |
The EngAGE – Entrepreneurship course
is designed to mix theoretical research based academic insight
linking it to the practice of entrepreneurship. We do this with
three key goals in mind, First, global entrepreneurship needs to be
dynamic and be able to mix the entrepreneurs innovative potential,
with leadership and drive the enterprise. Second, the entrepreneur
needs to be culturally aware and look for markets on the boundaries
of culture and markets and third the a global entrepreneur is as
much about taking advantage of local knowledge as much it is about
tapping the global knowledge pool for driving business, we will in
this part of the program focus on the entrepreneur as a leader, as
an innovator and someone that inspires others to work with him
without the certeinties of reward. |
Teaching methods |
The EngAGE entrepreneurial module
will focus on three main methods of teaching, First a normal
lecture method, where the lecturer will use ppt when required to
share knowledge in a lecture mode. The second will be seminars
where the participants will work on mock entrepreneurship role play
where the class will focus on the key features of entrepreneurship
and innovation. The mock class hours are designed to focus on
experience with the aim to imbibing a sense of entrepreneurship in
diversity from a global context. The mock play will be based on
case studies and students are expected to take active part in each
of the mock play. Third, a form of short class debate will be the
final way of sharing research based knowledge. Note these three
forms of instruction will be used in combination and not in
isolation. |
