Description

This course module is designed to make you think about how you would develop an idea into a business and is intended to equip you for the real world. Apart from a series of lectures that cover various important topics, much of the learning is through an experiential project in which you will work as part of a team (5-7 students). Previous projects have included proposals for taking a drug from early preclinical studies into man, or the development of a health related App. The projects are challenging in order to reflect real life.
