Course summary
Be the boss.
This BA Business and Entrepreneurship programme is an innovative, one-of-a-kind programme designed to equip you with all the skills you need to bring your business ideas to life.
This programme is focused on supporting individuals to learn about entrepreneurship in a practical way, by engaging in entrepreneurial activities, and developing business ideas from day one.
While you learn through typical business and entrepreneurship modules, you’ll also work in a coaching environment, where you are supported by a team coach to develop your business ideas and integrate the knowledge from your modules.
Working with like-minded people across all levels of study, you will support each other in developing your businesses and becoming successful entrepreneurial thinkers together. The programme offers opportunities to generate real revenue and pitch for funding to help grow your ideas.
All students develop entrepreneurial skills, and many utilise these in successful careers through graduate schemes or full-time employment in large corporations, SMEs, or other growing start-ups.
