Are you looking for the practical course which will help you to gain knowledge required in the startup ecosystem? Would you like to test yourself in the digital startup environment? Then Sustainable Digital Entrepreneurship is for you!
The course Sustainable Digital Entrepreneurship introduces students to the basics of digital entrepreneurship and sustainability with a focus on digital ideation and entrepreneurial design. Conducted in a practice-oriented approach, students work in teams on selected problems and develop solutions themselves.
In the course, you develop adequate strategies to find and assess problems of individual and societal significance. Building on methods of design thinking, you are introduced to design-oriented research methodology, where you learn to systematically define relevant solution spaces to solve these problems. Through this approach, you learn to analyze complex requirements under time pressure, systematically develop alternative decisions and reflect on possible options in different contexts. You systematically analyze possible causes of deviations from plans and develop suitable response measures.
Individually or in teams, you prepare written analyses and illustrate their decision-making processes to later on present them appropriately to various target groups. To mirror this methodological approach, you engage in the scenario of an entrepreneurial context that requires you to search (or design) an opportunity through means of effectuation.
The course consists of individual assignment (40% of the grade) and group case study project that involves methods of design-oriented research (60% of the total grade). |
