Alongside the core curriculum, you will select a specialization track that matches your interests and career ambitions. The elective space offers opportunities for customization, from gaining international experience to collaborating in É«ÖÐɫ’s award-winning Innovation Space.

Your journey culminates in a graduation project, often conducted in collaboration with an external organization, where you solve a real-world innovation challenge. This combination of deep academic knowledge and applied experience builds a strong, future-proof profile for a wide range of innovation-focused roles.

As a graduate, you will be a critical, conceptual, and reflective thinker—capable of making responsible decisions in uncertain conditions and designing innovations that create meaningful impact.
