The BA in Enterprise and Entrepreneurship (Hons) at Coventry University will give you the opportunity to go through the three main stages of value and venture creation:
- Idea generation and feasibility assessment
- Planning and implementation
- Scaling and growth
You will have the opportunity for in-depth exploration of your particular interests through coursework and an enterprise research project in the final year.
There is also a sandwich year option where you can apply to study abroad at a partner university or to work in employment in the UK or abroad.
The educational aims of the BA Enterprise and Entrepreneurship are to:
- Stimulate interest and develop expertise to equip you to generate value through the creation of an entrepreneurial idea, reviewing the feasibility of this idea, formulating a viable business plan, and taking the necessary steps to set up and run a business or entrepreneurial project;
- Provide you with an educational opportunity to broaden your knowledge around the specialist subject area of your entrepreneurial idea, to support your venture and to develop a pool of transferable skills; and
- Enable you to experience value creation whilst in the supportive environment of the University and make an informed decision about your future employment.
