Knowledge and Innovation Management
Based on the global economic and societal changes,
IKI-SEA believes that it is important to produce
Ph.D. graduates in Knowledge Management and
Innovation Management (KIM), who will become
future leaders in academia, private and public
sectors, and who will drive and create new
approaches to manage knowledge and nurture
innovation.
Business Innovation
Master in Business Innovation- The MBI program
focuses on the issues of how to identify, ideate
develop and manage new innovations of product,
service, process and business models. In today’s
turbulent business environment, open innovation is
a vital perspective because it often involves external
acquisition of technology and/or close collaboration
with customers, suppliers and competitors.
The KIM Ph.D. program follows a research-based
format (following the European model). Students
will be exposed to, and will have to acquire and
apply research techniques and tools that will
allow them to contribute new research findings
and outcomes to the current body of Knowledge
Management and Innovation Management
disciplines.
The program also creates a unique opportunity
for students to experience challenges throughout
new product/service design and development process
as well as to develop a mutual understanding about
the rationales on the technology and the business
management side. The aim of the program is to
enhance students’ understanding about strategies,
structures, processes, people and cultures to develop
successful innovations and enhance the innovative
capability of firms.
The KIM program will allow students to develop
their critical and creative thinking through various
types of learning and research activities, and will
allow them to develop lifelong learning
capabilities.
The Ph.D. KIM is a world-class PhD program
offered by Bangkok University in partnership
with Telecom Business School (Paris).
