Innovation Management and Entrepreneurship
Focus
Innovation management as a managerial oriented discipline covers the package of activities that guarantee a smooth and rapid process of creating innovations. There are very few business functions for which a fair level of innovativeness is not important. A marketing department is highly dependent on innovative thought to generate ways to catch and hold the attention of potential customers. In production a continuous process of innovating manufacturing processes is inevitably demanded from employees. In new product development, much innovativeness is required in finding novel answers to customer’s wants and needs and in discovering technical solutions to bring them into being. From small start-up enterprises via medium size companies to global business giants all face the problem of managing the creation of innovations to maintain prosperity in turbulent and competitive environments. Subsequently, the joint master program ‘Innovation Management and Entrepreneurship’ serves the demand of educating and enabling students to face these challenges from starting up enterprises to maintaining enterprises innovative throughout time.
Outline
The joint master program ‘Innovation Management and Entrepreneurship’ combines the two interrelated disciplines ‘Innovation Management’ and ‘Entrepreneurship’ into a meaningful whole. In this way the master program offers students to learn about, on the one hand, the innovation management on a strategical, tactical and operative level, and on the other hand all aspects around ‘Entrepreneurship’ as innovative performance.
The master program will result in two masters, one master of ‘Business
Administration’(M. Sc.) from the University Twente and one master of ‘Innovation Management and Entrepreneurship’ (M. Sc.) from Berlin University of Technology. Moreover, the University of Twente and Berlin University of Technology provide students with a network of aligned companies as Philips, AKZO-Nobel, Ten Cate, Siemens AG, ThyssenKrupp AG or Deutsche Telekom AG.
The master of ‘Business Administration’(M. Sc.) from the University Twente
encompasses 60 EC and the master of ‘Innovation Management and Entrepreneurship’ (M. Sc.) from Berlin University of Technology encompasses 120 EC.

Recombination of DNA - Publication in 1974
In 1974, Cohen and Boyer developed a method for the
recombination for DNA which is used by practically every
biochemist till this day. The researchers, however, were so
anxious to be the first to publish in this hard-fought area of
knowledge that the benefits resulting from the protection of
their method did not even occur to them. Today, the losses of
license revenue are estimated at a total of US$15bn.

Master Thesis
• We want you to write your master thesis outside the university
(companies, charities, public organizations etc.) – so that means that supervision and the location of writing the master thesis can and most often will be different.
• Even if you are enrolled and supervised in Twente you still can write your thesis wherever you like (and it makes sense).
• You need two supervisor one from U Twente and one from TU Berlin.
• The Master Class will be a course in Twente
• You can improve your grade from Twente by making an research article out of your thesis.
Twente or not Twente?
• Yes, Twente as the oldest and most successful institution in Entrepreneurship in Europe should be obligatory.
• Alternatives, no and yes – § 8 (2) Study-Regulation – you can study elsewhere as long as the subject profile is comparable and come back and write the master theses in Berlin. This is not possible at any of the Berlin Universities!!!
• Disadvantage; you only get the degree from Berlin.
• There is no possibility to stay in Berlin for four terms and get a degree.
