This taught module will engage students in the more practical elements of innovation and enterprise activity, not just in terms of entrepreneurship within the corporate environment. This module will prepare students for enterprise activity across a variety of contexts.

This year we will be using SimVenture which is a business simulation that allows you to setup and run your own company. Students will be responsible for running the company and thus making all decisions. Every decision they make has a time and financial consequence. The simulation plays the role of the market (enquiries, orders and sales) and they can run their company for up to 3 years. Virtually all relevant business issues are covered within the simulation. Groups of 4 students will be mentored, with each person taking directorial responsibility for one of the main areas.
