As the demand for a new type of entrepreneurship grows, this new programme will give students the understanding and skillset needed to meet the challenges of building a sustainable business in today’s world.
The programme’s motto is “Entrepreneurship for Real”.
According to Vadim Grinevich, course director: “The MSc is innovative and special in many ways and provides bespoke one-to-one mentorship support throughout the course of the study. Our state-of-the-art Enterprise Simulation Lab puts entrepreneurial knowledge and skills into practice in a safe environment. It also accommodates aspirations of both for-profit and socially oriented entrepreneurs, as well as those from diverse backgrounds.
“The course also helps grasp entrepreneurial opportunities associated with digitalisation, artificial intelligence and sustainability and provides a gateway to local, national, and international entrepreneurial networks.”
The programme provides bespoke support from the point of admission, throughout study, and after graduation by proposing a road map for a successful entrepreneurial career.
It caters for individuals at different points on their entrepreneurial journey and different types of entrepreneurship across different sectors and missions, including for-profit and social/hybrid enterprises.
Professor Sankar Sivarajah Dean of the University of Bradford School of Management adds:
