Advanced Master in Innovation & Entrepreneurship

Program Description

The Advanced Master in Innovation & Entrepreneurship is a 12 month International Master programme taking place at Solvay Brussels School of Economics & Management and MIP Politecnico di Milano, and is taught entirely in English.

The Advanced Master in Innovation & Entrepreneurship is aimed at candidates who want to think and act like entrepreneurs and become innovative leaders.
Over the course of the programme, participants will take part in three major projects:

– The ‘New Venture Accelerator’, where they will have to act as an entrepreneur to create a business model of a start-up from scratch.
– The ‘Consulting Project’, where they will have to act as a business consultant in an established small or medium enterprise.

– The ‘Corporate Internship’, where they will have to act as a team member taking part in the launch of a new corporate project.

During these projects, participants will be individually coached by the faculty and professional consultants to maximise their on-the-job learning.

Our partner: MIP Politecnico di Milano.
MIP is a global business school accredited by EQUIS and AMBA. It is ranked by the Financial Times among the best business schools in Europe and has been recognised as a prestigious business school for over 30 years. The school works with a wide network of public and private companies and is supported by the strong links developed with the Politecnico di Milano’s Departments of Engineering and Design.

Highlights

The programme consists of an autumn term in Milan, a spring term in Brussels and a summer term at one of the two campuses, according to preference.

By being mobile across different European locations, the participants will be stimulated to adopt a broader market perspective and to use their capability to network and interact with different business environments.

The programme comprises three experiential modules during which the participants will learn to develop a new business initiative, serve as members of a consulting team assisting a company in implementing a corporate strategy, and developing a project in collaboration with a company.
