New course commercialises commercialisation (Lincoln and Canterbury Universities)
By Peter Kerr for sticK
(sticK - 1 Feb. 2011 ) A new course and qualification around the turning of an idea into income is available in the Mainland (sticK show's a place of birth bias!).
It is another small but significant move to upskill ourselves in turning gold in much more gold.
The University of Canterbury and Lincoln University are combining forces to offer a new qualification to help New Zealand's commercialisation of science and technology.
The Graduate Certificate in Science Innovation and Entrepreneurship starts this year, and candidates will complete courses at both universities.
Academic co-ordinator Dr Rachel Wright says the certificate will appeal to those working in commercialisation.
For sticK – science, technology, innovation & commercialisation KNOWLEDGE - is a new Wellington based news service concentrating on following the money from ideas to income. Contact editor Peter Kerr at peter.kerr055 @ gmail.com
