About Programme

Your students will graduate into a world that keeps changing shape. The careers they take, at home or abroad, will ask them to work with uncertainty rather than around it. That is a teaching problem before it is a career problem. IIT Bombay and the Stockholm School of Entrepreneurship invite you to an intensive day and a half of exploration and practice. You will work directly with entrepreneurial mindset and practices as they apply across disciplines and across different forms of entrepreneurship, not just startups. The focus throughout is education that creates real value for both you and your students. Engaging, experiential, grounded in reality rather than case studies from somewhere else. The premise is straightforward. An entrepreneurship educator can prepare students in any discipline for an unpredictable world, and the way you design and teach is what makes that happen. So you will learn what is working elsewhere, then spend your time converting it into methods you can use in your own classroom, with your own students, next term. Expect to leave with things you can teach, not just things you know.

Programme Content

Mapping the territory. Entrepreneurship means very different things in different contexts. You will get a clear taxonomy and learn how to work with the full range of ideas rather than defaulting to the startup version. Building the mindset, and knowing if it worked. How to develop entrepreneurial thinking and behaviours in students, and the harder question most programmes skip: how you actually assess something like this. Pedagogies that put students in motion. Experiential and action based methods, where learning comes from doing rather than being told. Co-creating with your ecosystem. Entrepreneurship education gets stronger when it is built with people outside your classroom. How to work with the ecosystem you already have, and grow it from there. Designing courses that hold attention. Curriculum built around facilitation, experimentation and feedback, so students stay engaged because the work demands something from them. The relationships that make it stick. How to bring stakeholders in properly, from industry to alumni to your own colleagues, and keep those relationships alive over time.

Programme Benefits

HANDS ON FACILITY:
This runs inside IIT Bombay's new Desai Sethi School of Entrepreneurship building, a six storey, 115,000 square foot facility built specifically for innovation and among the few of its kind anywhere. You will teach and learn in the kind of space you are being asked to design for: makerspaces, tinkering labs, design studios, micro factories and open co working areas where students, faculty and founders work in the same room. Seeing how a space invites experimentation is itself a lesson in course design. The format matches the setting. Little lecturing, a lot of doing. You will facilitate, experiment, give and receive feedback, and rework your own material in the room alongside peers who teach what you teach. Facilitators from the Stockholm School of Entrepreneurship bring the methods; IIT Bombay faculty keep them grounded in the classrooms you are going back to.
