The previous Director of the programme talks about what makes the learning experience unique.
The Master of Studies in Entrepreneurship provides entrepreneurs with essential knowledge and skills required to be successful. What makes our programme unique are three constituent parts that complement and strengthen each other.
The first part is academics. The entrepreneurship knowledge taught by Cambridge Judge Business School faculty offers critical insight and the latest frameworks to provide clarity of thought and confidence to make decisions and take action.
Second is practical application. Our programme is designed to allow students to integrate the newly obtained knowledge immediately into their ventures. This is possible because of the part-time nature of the programme and the support and guidance provided through one-to-one mentoring.
The third part is our community, which consists of an incredibly diverse set of students, alumni, and practicing entrepreneurs, who all share a connection to the programme and Cambridge. After all, Cambridge is known as one of the most vibrant and supportive entrepreneurial ecosystems in the world.
