Overview

This unit examines entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial behaviour as something that occurs both within organisational settings, as well as amongst those who start up their own business ventures. Students will be challenged to think critically about the selection and application of concepts, frameworks and analytical techniques in both entrepreneurship and intrapreneurship situations with the aim of developing self-insight, analysis, and judgement to identify and successfully implement innovative business opportunities. The unit provides students the opportunity to demonstrate critical and creative scholarship and responsible and effective global citizenship, whilst analysing and providing multidisciplinary solutions to a current issue in commerce via a team-based approach.
