Course Syllabus
Abstract
This research seminar examines how firms and ecosystems create, appropriate, and diffuse value from new technologies, anchored in high-end articles from leading journals (e.g., Academy of Management Journal, Research Policy, Journal of Product Innovation Management, Technological Forecasting & Social Change, Technovation). The course progresses from foundations in technology and innovation management to open innovation, co-creation, and IP management. Each session centers on critical discussion of field-defining issues and theories, novel methodological approaches, and future research frontiers, with an explicit emphasis on extracting testable claims, measurement strategies, and dissertation-relevant insights.
Learning Objectives
- The objectives of the course Research in Technology and Innovation Management are to: (1) introduce students to key concepts and core research in the scholarly field of technology and innovation management, and (2) help them recognize promising research pathways in this field and at its intersection with other fields of research, such as strategic management, international business, marketing, HR and operations management.
Expected Learning Outcomes
- Students will develop skills to discuss potential research directions, research limitations and methodology related concerns with their peers;
- Students will have comprehensive set of knowledge and skills that will enable them to explain and critically discuss the key theoretical concepts related to technology and innovation management;
- Students will improve their skills of clearly presenting and unambiguously communicating their research ideas in English, both orally and in writing;
- Students will improve their skills of conducting literature review and framing their research proposals;
- Students will learn to acquire knowledge and skills independently, creating the basis for the self-directed and autonomous life-long learning.
- Students will learn to identify research gaps in the field of technology and innovation management, as well as at its intersection with other related fields of research;
Course Contents
- Defining innovation
- Open innovation
- Co-creation with individual external contributors
- Intellectual property management
Assessment Elements
- In-class discussionThere will be four discussion classes during the course focused on four different topics. Discussions will be based on the different journal articles published primarily in highly ranked technology and innovation management journals, such as Research Policy, Journal of Product Innovation Management, Technological Forecasting and Social Change, etc. To prepare for discussion classes, students will be required to read the articles and prepare their pre-discussion notes. Only students who submit their notes before the class and participate in the discussions are eligible for max 10 points for their engagement in each of the four discussion classes.
- Team presentationsStudents will be required to form teams for their team presentations of selected journal articles on different topics. Each team will receive articles from the course reading list to determine, analyse and critically assess their core elements, such as research problem, objective, research question, approach to literature review, methodology, etc.
