| Overall content |
The theme seminar works with knowledge of how innovation is organised and carried out in co-operation between companies and in a social context, and how company networks and interactive innovation processes work. Students must be able to explain how innovation occurs in interaction with other companies, how network-based innovation processes can be organised, and how the surrounding society affects innovation in the company and entrepreneurship. The significance of the institutional framework and of the social environment for innovation must be analysed as a background to understanding the value creation of the company. |
| Teaching and working methods |
The theme seminar provides students with theoretical and in-depth knowledge of selected themes and issues that are specifically formulated within the chosen thematic areas. Students acquire skills in reading theoretical texts in specialised areas and in linking theoretical reflections to practical situations, where the theories can help to provide a better description of actual company conditions and processes. At the theme seminar, students acquire competencies in writing brief presentations on the basis of advanced theory, focusing and conducting discussions on the basis of this theory, and translating academic analyses into proposals for the management and organisation of companies. A number of seminar sessions are held of 2-4 hours’ duration. Examples and case studies are used to define analyses of innovation and entrepreneurship. The students’ own empirical observations will be included in the seminar. At the beginning of the seminar, theory and examples are read, discussed and presented. Situations and issues are then discussed in relation to papers, drafts of which are prepared by the students during the seminar. At the end of the seminar the students present their draft papers and receive critique from an opponent, with a subsequent discussion in plenary. |
