Entry requirements

You will typically need an upper second-class honours degree or an international equivalent in any discipline.

If you are currently completing a degree, we understand that your final grade may be higher than the interim grades or module/unit grades you have achieved during your studies to date.

We will consider your application if your interim grades are currently slightly lower than the programme's entry requirements and may make you an aspirational offer. This offer would be at the standard level, so you would need to achieve the standard entry requirements by the end of your degree. Specific module requirements would still apply.

We will also consider your application if your final overall achieved grade is slightly lower than the programme's entry requirement. If you have at least one of the following, please include your CV (curriculum vitae / résumé) when you apply, showing details of your relevant qualifications:

  • Evidence of significant (minimum two years), relevant work experience in a formal title role within any organisation in any sector or industry.
  • A relevant postgraduate qualification

See international equivalent qualifications on the International Office website.

Course content

To thrive in a disrupted world you will need creativity as well as commercial acumen. Come to the home of innovative, design-led, creative business education and transform your prospects.

The MSc Business Innovation and Entrepreneurship will teach you how to apply your existing undergraduate degree knowledge in real-world business challenges appropriate to joining innovative organisations. You'll get the chance to:

  • start-up your career and ideas in a professional-supported environment,
  • undertake applied commercial projects in collaborative teams,
  • learn human-centred techniques for designing and developing ideas of real value.

We welcome students from any discipline who are thinking about building a career either in large commercial organisations or startups.

This programme shares much of its teaching with our other Innovation and Entrepreneurship programmes (MSc and MA) but has a specific focus on intrapreneurial activity adding value within existing organisations.

This course will develop the high-level skills and critical competencies needed for successful organisational innovation and intrapreneurship, through a largely practice-orientated educational approach based on collaborative teamwork across disciplines and cultures.

During the programme you get opportunities to work alongside innovators and their businesses to develop a deep understanding of opportunities and challenges.

Bristol is a recognised hub for innovative and entrepreneurial business, being ranked within the top five best places in the UK to start-up outside of London (Startup Cities Index, 2022), and home to some of the most impactful, innovative, and creative organisations in the world.
