Our society is constantly changing, thus it is challenging us to step out of our comfort zone, take actions and make a change in our community. Nowadays, students have the chance to do that through an entrepreneurship degree.
Entrepreneurship degrees are designed to develop students’ leadership skills, as well as technical skills, in order to prepare them to start their own business. Candidates learn what it takes to start a new business, starting with networking until selling their idea.
Unlike a business degree, which focuses more on technical information, entrepreneurship is the ‘creative’ part. This degree emphasises the concepts and ideas behind a business while understanding its environment and major bottlenecks.
Graduating from an Entrepreneurship course has plenty of positive aspects. Undoubtedly, the most important one is the students’ mindset. Entrepreneurs are proactive and willing to take initiative, which is valued in this rapidly growing market.
Graduates from entrepreneurship degrees are highly sought for their knowledge and transferable skills, which makes them one of the most significant players in the business field all around the world.
Generally, graduates either start their own company or they seek opportunities in other businesses in fields like production, retail, marketing, human resources, finances and so on.
Entrepreneurship courses are a three-year commitment, in which you need to complete a certain amount of credits to be able to complete your studies. The number of credits required varies from university to university.
Moreover, there are some institutions in which entrepreneurship is required to be studied together with another minor course. The minor course, often called the ‘flexible’ course can be chosen from any other discipline area within the university.
I will soon graduate from the Management program at New Bulgarian University. This place gave me a lot of opportunities that I didn’t receive previously at a different higher education facility in Sofia. My studies were always supported and encouraged with a lot of understanding whenever I had to work and didn’t have enough time for the university. That meant that I could lengthen my stay at the university and even keep my accommodation for an extra year. I am very glad about the modern curriculum that expanded my horizons in various directions. The resulting graduate thesis will be a great way for me to launch the next chapter of my professional life and start work at a management consultancy firm. The university is a quality choice among its competitors in the capital and especially in the area of communication studies and management.
