Entrepreneurship

Entrepreneurship degrees provide a business curriculum related to the setting up of new or small business ventures. Like
any business degree, these programmes cover the obvious functions such as accounting,
management and marketing, but the main focus will be on product or service development, start-up funding, purchasing and distribution issues and client base development. The attractiveness of the entrepreneurial spirit that lends ownership to the entrepreneur is the reason why many people are beginning to set up small business ventures. Entrepreneurship allows
graduates to do what they love and basically be their own boss. Some entrepreneurs use their unique talents for a startup and then sell their companies, and then go on to start new ones. But more than often, entrepreneurship graduates find their niche in working for already established corporations.
