The Edward de Bono Institute is very pleased to announce that the popular Master in Creativity and Innovation has been revamped! This multidisciplinary postgraduate course has been attracting local and international students for many years, and it is about to get even better after being updated in response to feedback from students and advances in the field. New study units include 'Creative and Critical Thinking: Theory and Practice', 'Leadership for Managing Change and Innovation', 'Creativity and Innovation in the Cultural and Creative Industries', and 'Strategic and Entrepreneurial Decision-Making' which will be delivered by visiting lecturer from Lincoln International Business School (University of Lincoln), Dr Andrea Caputo. This course also includes a Research Methods study unit and a supervised dissertation project, but students may opt to exit the programme without completing the dissertation. In such cases, they are awarded a Postgraduate Diploma in Creativity and Innovation, provided that they have successfully completed the taught component (60 ECTS).
The Institute is also offering the part-time evening Diploma in Creativity, Innovation and Entrepreneurship. This is aimed at individuals who would like to further their education and improve their career prospects or entrepreneurial capabilities but are not in a position to attend full-time day courses due to other commitments.
Applications may be submitted on the University of Malta's online portal until 25 July 2019 at 14:00. They will then be accepted between 26 July and 31 August against the late application fee, and between 1 and 30 September against the very late application fee.
