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.
My name is Lorenzo and I’m a first-year student at ESE Florence. I’ve loved this place from the first day and I immediately met new friends from all around the world. We study in a healthy and cozy environment that facilitates interactions between students; usually, we meet in the library during breaks. I love the “face-to-face” way of teaching that stimulates in-class discussions and debates. Small classes make me more focused on the lesson and teachers are always available for clarifications. It’s a pleasure to learn about different organizational cultures, also through company visits organised by ESE in the beautiful city of Florence and beyond. Studying in the historic center of Florence is amazing, it is full of places where you can meet many international students.
So far, my experience here has been amazing and I’m learning a lot!
First of all since my campus was in the heart of Rome, the place and inside of the university was like a whole museum. I love how friendly and helpful the staff was, the professors were one in a million. I love how they did all their best to tell us about the subjects in detail and in a fun way with examples for us to get into it more. I liked how they make time and engage in it and actually help us to teach us, so it was all in one reading writing with our own brain and infos searching for the sources by ourselves listening but also being able to express our own way of knowledge on the topics!
