You will undertake a substantial entrepreneurial activity, which will be group based with students from at least three other disciplines, who also may be from another country. During two weeks of intensive learning, possibly taking place within a country beyond the UK, you will gain entrepreneurial skills through the solving of a problem proposed by entrepreneurial practitioners. These skills and knowledge include innovative business practice, including project management, financial awareness and marketing knowledge. In addition, leadership and communication skills will be developed through client-centred awareness and networking. In the first intensive learning week, students will work in teams of four, each student representing a different discipline, while in the second week, a ‘maxi-group’ of students will produce a group solution to a practical problem. You may be required to undertake data collection through interviews and other methods.

24 hours per week for two weeks’ intensive group learning in various places, which may include locations outside Staffordshire University. Also, independent study for underpinning theoretical development.
