The Entrepreneurship Dissertation provides an opportunity for students to assimilate what they have learned during the MSc in Entrepreneurship course and apply it to a business opportunity that is of interest to them. The resulting output is intended to be a comprehensive document to prove that students can carry out primary research, apply learning, contrast theory with practice, analyse problems and propose solid well-considered business recommendations.
The Entrepreneurship Dissertation Module is unique in its focus on a business idea or market opportunity, and as such celebrates the practical application of taught theories and frameworks as well as thoughtfully-designed research and analysis. Students are expected to dive into their chosen topic area, explore it rigorously and demonstrate entrepreneurial spirit along the journey.

This course explores the relationships between postcolonial theory and social & cultural geography. It examines the influence and potential of postcolonial theory for critical geographical thought and its interventions in social, cultural and political life. Structured around three intersecting themes – space, identity, knowledge – that, broadly speaking, mirror developments in postcolonial theory since the late 1970s, the course familiarizes students with critical intellectual trajectories in postcolonial thinking and examines the analytical techniques they offer to contemporary geographical enquiry. By doing so, the course develops students’ critical analytical skills and interpretive abilities in relation to the postcolonial politics of culture and its spatial formations. It has methodological and theoretical relevance for students working on urban, environmental, political, as well as social and cultural issues.

The course aims are as follows:

1) To develop students’ knowledge of postcolonial theory and its relationship with critical cultural geography.
2) To enhance students’ analytical and interpretive abilities in relation to the postcolonial politics of culture and its spatial formations in both historical and contemporary contexts.
3) To develop students ability to use postcolonial theory in future research projects.
