DESCRIPTION
Students studying in the Entrepreneurship & Innovation Track will enroll into an innovative curriculum modality comprised of 2 academic modules: Global Entrepreneurship and Social Entrepreneurship. These comprehensive modules meet for 120 minutes, 5 days a week over a 4 week session for a combined total of 2,400 minutes.
The Global Entrepreneurship module seeks to familiarise you with concepts and models of relevance for entrepreneurs: in particular, starting up a new venture, and assessing its viability and value. In addition, it will introduce you to the particularities of corporate entrepreneurship in initiating, developing, and leading intra-preneurial projects that lead to the generation of new businesses within established companies.
The Social Entrepreneurship module is designed for a broad range of students including those who, during their professional careers, are considering a leadership position in a social enterprise; interested in understanding the specifics of managing social enterprises; interested in consulting to social enterprises; planning to serve as board members or volunteers; become funders of nonprofit organizations; or interested in leveraging business to serve social transformation. Social is understood here in the broadest sense of benefitting society, including environmental improvements. Note that we are not talking about starting up social networks like Facebook but about using business principles to improve society.
