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.

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.
