From the first few weeks, you will be interviewing prospective customers, and subsequently learn how to do ‘rapid prototyping’, using the tools of ‘lean’ entrepreneurship, and pitching new ideas. Using UCL’s networks and reputation as a starting point to access London’s thriving entrepreneurship scene, you will find or develop a founding team and learn how to raise investor finance, or ‘bootstrap’ your business. This programme is about creating 'for-profit' enterprises which are committed to the principles of sustainable capitalism.
This programme was the first of its kind in Europe, for its single-minded focus on giving you the knowledge, skills, and network to start-up a business successfully. We pride ourselves on our rate of successful start-up creation, and every year work to launch more successful start-ups.
On this programme, you will find yourself among like-minded students who will be your allies during your studies – and in some cases, the co-founders with whom you will establish your future business. A selection of start-ups from the programme can be found in our Hall of Fame website.
An exciting study abroad option is available to our students at Singapore Management University (SMU) for Term 2 on their equivalent to our programme, MSc Entrepreneurship and Innovation. This option allows students to study at an additional prestigious academic institution and simultaneously gain experience of Singapore's dynamic start-up eco-system and Asian culture. The option is available to both full-time and part-time students. Students are selected during Term 1 based on a short personal statement. This study option cannot be guaranteed to applicants joining the degree. For further information on the SMU study option, please email David Gomulya at [email protected]. Support funding is available through the Turing Scheme subject to status.
