Description of the teaching methods | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The teaching and learning strategy of the module
is based around providing students with the basic knowledge and
skills necessary to conduct research in business and management
settings, with specific emphasis on entrepreneurship and
innovation. Sessions will involve discussions, studio work and
lectures pertaining to key aspects of business and management as a
social science and its broader relationship to the humanities. The
combined use of theoretical and practical sessions will contribute
to preparing students to conduct research in business and
management settings.
Emphasis will be given to researching entrepreneurial phenomena, so learning hands on how research can engage productively with the field. Case method research methods will feature prominently. |
