Experience 'Science Entrepreneurship' in this new course series!
Want to dip your toes into entrepreneurship from a Science perspective? In this new course series, you'll get the tools to flourish as a Science Entrepreneur. Across three courses, you'll learn what entrepreneurship entails, which ideas can be successful, and how to, for example, set up a start-up.
The courses can be taken separately, and the hybrid format (with seminars on campus at the beginning and end of the module, and self-paced online learning in between) is easy to combine with study or work.
