At Global School for Entrepreneurship, we stimulate students to think, decide, and act as entrepreneurs. We give entrepreneurship the attention it deserves. Many universities offer entrepreneurship as an add-on to their program; some through hands-on minors, others by touching on popular tools such as the business model canvas. Our program takes a radically different approach as we aim to develop Tomorrow’s Entrepreneurs: professionals with an entrepreneurial mindset who feel comfortable in unpredictable environments.
We challenge, inspire, and facilitate students to become entrepreneurs by being one. Our five-week modules provide students with practical learning methods and the latest knowledge from the field to develop entrepreneurial competencies. As Tomorrow’s Entrepreneurs, you have to be effective in dealing with unpredictability and become comfortable with being uncomfortable. Entrepreneurship is not something you learn by reading a book. It demands learning through application; therefore, we are proud to be a UNIVERSITY OF APPLIED SCIENCE with a FULLY ACCREDITED cutting-edge bachelor program by and for entrepreneurs. Our modules are designed to help you BUILD YOUR STARTUP and are therefore timed to meet your development needs, allowing you to focus on becoming the architect of your own life.
That is why we fully focus on applied sciences. We see entrepreneurship as a way to shape your own destiny and make a meaningful, direct contribution to society. The only way to learn how to do this is by actually doing the work and starting your business.
Start working on your future from day one.
Our program puts your business development first. You don’t have to wait four years to put your knowledge into practice, in our program you do it from day one. Each block consists of one module, which focuses on a specific topic. The entire curriculum follows this structure and is designed in such a way that all modules follow the process of building your business. From ideation to validation to scaling, the program covers it all.
Between sessions of the modules, we offer incubator time. The incubator is an essential part of our program as you’ll receive personal coaching and mentorship that works to help you apply the lessons learned during the modules immediately into YOUR OWN START-UP.
And as an added bonus: it fits within the framework of accreditation, which means your degree is fully accredited by the Dutch-Flemish Accreditation Organisation (NVAO). So even if you want to gain more experience by working at another company, your bachelor’s degree is just as competitive as all Business Administration degrees.
