What is the module about?
This exciting module offers the opportunity to work in diverse interdisciplinary teams in response to a digital innovation competition brief set by Warwick’s incubator ‘Creative Futures’ in partnership with the Student Enterprise Fund. Teams will have the option to apply post-module to a global external competition (e.g. set by Microsoft, Google, Finastra, etc.)
The modules aims to:
- Provide students with the skills and support required to work as an interdisciplinary team to develop an innovative idea/product.
- Provide students with a context (the brief set by Warwick’s incubator ‘Creative Features’ in partnership with the Student Enterprise Fund) in which to focus and realise their innovative idea/product.
- Encourage students to evaluate their proposal/tool in the wider ESG (Environmental, Social and Governance) context, including policy and regulation.
