    Degrees in Entrepreneurship

    Why should you study an entrepreneurship degree?

    If you’re considering starting your own company or becoming a sole trader (or already are one), you should consider studying an entrepreneurship degree. As a striving entrepreneur, it has never been more important to set yourself apart from the competition. In the United States, approximately 540,000 people become new business owners each month, according to the 2017 Kauffman Index of Startup Activity. Since 2017, the number of new businesses has continued to rise. An entrepreneurship degree helps you to gain an edge over this ever-growing competition.

    No matter what your background, level of experience or industry, there is an entrepreneurship degree for you. If you’re just starting out on your journey, a degree in entrepreneurship can help you get your foot in the door and introduce you to some new skills, but there are also more specialized degrees for those who are already running their own companies or ventures and want to expand their knowledge.

    Depending on the level and specialism of each degree, suitable candidates may include, but are not limited to:
