BA (Hons) Enterprise and Entrepreneurial Management


The BA (Hons) Enterprise and Entrepreneurial Management is one of the UK's leading degree programmes for aspiring entrepreneurs and entrepreneurial managers.

Designed and delivered by leading academics, alongside world-class entrepreneurs through the 'entrepreneurs in residence' scheme, with Walter Herriot OBE as its Director, this three-year degree programme is designed for entrepreneurial and enterprising students who think outside the box and who want to make things happen. More than just a degree, this programme gives students the right mind-set for dealing with an increasingly uncertain and unpredictable world.

All students on the course are allocated an entrepreneur as a mentor for the three years of the programme. This ensures that the students do not only graduate from the Lord Ashcroft International Business School with the skills, abilities and attitude to take control of their own career, they will also have a ready made entrepreneurial network.

During the second semester, as part of the 'Learning in Residence' module, students also get the chance to spend 12 weeks working within an entrepreneurial business alongside an entrepreneur.

The BA Enterprise and Entrepreneurial management course is different to any other course due to its innovative ways of teaching with subjects that are much more interesting and relevant to the real life such as decision making and negotiation skills. In addition, the lectures and seminars are given by a mix of academics and seasoned entrepreneurs which allows for the students to get a much more realistic view of what entrepreneurship is and not just the theoretical side.

One of the most original aspects of this course is the mentoring scheme that provides each student with an entrepreneur as a mentor. The mentor is available for the full 3 years, which enables students to establish a relationship in the working world in a way that no other course does.
