The goal of this Bachelor’s Degree is to train future professionals to become entrepreneurs or innovators within a company.
This course will enable students to acquire a set of highly marketable skills: they will be able to master multiple disciplines while simultaneously emerging as leaders in specific activities and functions.
In addition to preparing students for various professional roles, this Bachelor’s Degree opens up a multitude of opportunities upon graduation.
Enhancing Courses are a series of extra-curricular courses that integrate the knowledge provided by their academic pathway with practical skills of broad application.
Students will learn to understand their skill profile, cultivate a personal learning agenda, and develop a set of knowledge and abilities useful for understanding the needs of businesses.
We believe that the same skills and abilities that are essential for starting a startup, such as leadership, problem-solving, resilience, strategy, risk-taking, and continuous learning, are valuable in any career path.
Through a combination of theoretical and practical learning, students gain insights, methodology, and tools that can help them succeed as entrepreneurs and in any other profession.
Our study programs are ideal for those seeking to develop a versatile and comprehensive skill set.
Our faculty consists of experienced instructors with international experience, including academics, managers, startup founders, and consultants. Our partners are leading entities in their respective fields, and our alumni are innovators in their workplaces.
To provide our students with the best opportunities to interact with this community, we have created a unique 360-degree learning experience, where learning occurs through continuous dialogue and the exchange of knowledge and experiences with guest speakers and notable personalities, through group projects, case studies, challenges, hackathons, events, networking moments, and inspirational talks.
