The Master in Strategic Design in Complexity combines strategic design, systems thinking, sustainability and applied social sciences to devise new approaches in the field of business and social innovation and solve problems in both the business sphere and all kinds of organisational or community-based settings.

As the world becomes increasingly VUCA (volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous), areas like strategy design and the role of strategy in design are gaining relevance. This master responds to the context of society's growing complexity and the need for a systems approach to solving problems.

It thereby aims to prepare a new generation of professionals, by not only enhancing your business skills but also equipped with the design capacities to develop initiatives that respond to the challenges and needs of the 21st century, including environmental and ethical issues.

The programme promotes ethnographic and anthropological research, ideation and prototyping to devise new approaches in the field of business and social innovation.

You will gain design-based critical thinking skills while developing sophisticated perspectives on organisational and management strategy, financial and environmental strategy, entrepreneurial spirit and ethical leadership.
