Bachelor of Rural Innovation
Finding answers - and communicating them
Are you the kind of person who speaks of challenges, not problems? Who is always on the lookout for creative solutions? Who enjoys helping people to get innovations off the ground? Then it is time you took a closer look at Rural Innovation.
This intensive Bachelor's programme provides a practical introduction to the opportunities and threats affecting life in rural areas all over the world - a world that could soon become your own workspace! As a facilitator for rural innovation, you would pick up new ideas and impulses, and turn them into policies for concrete action. You would ensure that people in the field really make a difference. In the field of international development, you would build bridges, break logjams, and identify options that are likely to flourish. The greater your expertise, the more deployable you would be.
Thanks to our synthesis of theory and practice, graduates work on projects all over the world, usually at the very heart of analysis, communication, extension and training. Their preparation lies in many placements, but also in subjects such as sociology, planning, nature management, statistics and research techniques. After graduation, you could find work in government or consultancy, at a service centre, with a development organisation such as CMC, VSO or PSO, or on public or private-sector projects anywhere in the world.
