ERIM Research Clinic Strategy and Entrepreneurship


Aims

To introduce you to the frontiers of knowledge and of research in Absorptive Capacity, Exploration/Exploitation, Ambidexterity, Corporate Entrepreneurship, Strategic Innovation and Coevolution to enable you to formulate a research proposal.  
A second goal is to familiarize the student with the research done by top ERIM researchers (within and outside the S&E programme).

Information

This course familiarizes the student with recent research in strategy by investigating several influential articles in top journals in the area. Emphasis is given to how research questions and problems are formulated, how conceptual frameworks and hypotheses are developed and how actual data and methods are used to answer the posed questions and to analyse the impact of important explicit and implicit assumptions used. Based on the acquired insights, students are expected to formulate their own research project and write a report about it.
As a second part of this course, students will be introduced to the research that is done within ERIM over all programmes. This is done by a series of two-hour seminars given by ERIM members and fellows. In each seminar, recent research is presented. Attendance of these seminars is obligatory.

Assessment
