Career options
Innovation is much more than technology, hardware and software. There’s a well-known ‘multiplier effect’ that for every technology job, there are five times more non-technology jobs to make innovation happen across the rest of the economy. That’s all the more reason to equip every student, regardless of their core degree(s), with the capability to actively be part of an innovation economy.
And, innovation is increasingly networked. It’s hardly as simple or linear as creating a new product or service and introducing it to a market. Developing a new product, introducing a new service, and implementing a new idea now requires more interaction with a more diverse set of stakeholders than ever before. Coordinating that in a collaborative way so that value is created for each stakeholder requires a new set of skills that are in high demand.
That’s where the Diploma in Innovation at TD School comes in.
