SMBA6115: Creativity, Innovation and Business
2021 unit information
This unit provides students with strategies, experiences and approaches to build creativity and innovation in their business practice. Drawing on the creative leadership and business transformation research, the unit provides students with immersive creative experiences inspired by artistic practice and theory in business, science education and the arts. The unit follows a process of building praxis-based knowledge (through experiential hands-on workshops) so that students build understanding and then put it into practice through the development and delivery of a creativity project in collaboration with their peers.
