Innovation and digital entrepreneurship

The Graduate Degree Programme in Innovation and Digital Entrepreneurship belongs to class LM-77 (Economics and Business Sciences). The programme aims to train professionals who are increasingly in demand on the labour market, due to the strong development of the digital economy:

• the manager of innovation projects (Innovation Manager) in digital companies;
• the Digital Transformation Expert;
• the Digital Entrepreneur, founder of innovative start-ups.

The first peculiar feature of this graduate degree programme is the training of graduates in the areas of knowledge necessary to create, manage and develop businesses in the digital economy.

A second feature of this graduate degree is that from the first year students will also be involved in a constant path of "learning by doing", thanks to the organic collaboration with a pool of innovative companies and in the ICT sector that from the first semester will offer the programme participants a series of supplementary activities such as:

• workshops and seminars on technological topics;
• project works (individual and group);
• business games;
• mentoring by managers and entrepreneurs;
• internships and microinternships;
• hackathons and business challenges on real problems;
• possibility of incubation periods for ideas and startups.

Systematic collaboration with digital companies will offer students opportunities to develop the soft skills necessary to operate effectively in organisations, as well as those useful for founding and guiding new ventures.
