Introduction
Programme overview
In this programme, you will be provided with the theory, concepts and methods to analyse and better understand the role of innovation in economic, social and sustainable development from a historical perspective. The unique focus on spatial dynamics/economic geography enables you to gain insights on how the areas of development and innovation interplay, evolve and shape the economy in different regions and periods of time. Innovation is fundamental in the process of economic, social and environmentally sustainable development.
You will then be better equipped to understand and analyse the grand challenges such as; climate change, food security and poverty alleviation. Innovation is also about the diffusion and incremental changes that yield economic, social and environmental benefits for society. In this programme, you will learn the dynamics of both macro and microeconomics of innovation. The programme draws on frontline research in the field of economic geography, the economics of innovation and economic history. Some of the key topics covered are innovation for sustainable development, the economics of innovation and energy transitions.
Exchange opportunity with the University of Geneva
LUSEM invites students to apply for an exchange at the University of Geneva during the second year of the programme. Selected students attend one semester at the Master’s in Innovation, Human Development and Sustainability, created in partnership with Tsinghua University, Beijing. This programme is part of a broader collaboration on the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, including summer schools, executive training and an exchange programme, called the Geneva-Tsinghua Initiative (GTI).
