In today’s competitive environment many companies are looking beyond the traditional Business graduate to take their companies, products and services and to exceed revenue and profit expectations. It’s not a surprise that many world’s leading companies want their graduates to think creatively, solve problems and to contribute towards bottom-lines. In short they are looking for entrepreneurial talent among their new hires. Traditionally entrepreneurship was known as the “process of starting a business, a startup company or other organization through innovative or creative ideas”. This definition has broaden today to include some of the top careers such as CEO ( Chief Executive Officer), CFO (Chief Finance Officer), CMO ( Chief Marketing Officer), and Project and product specialists among many other positions where companies are looking for entrepreneurship talent. It’s true that a degree is not a must to become an entrepreneur and many people have launched successful businesses without a formal education. However, degree programs in entrepreneurship can help students learn more about accounting, ethics, economics, finance, marketing, management, and other business topics. In short degree programmes in entrepreneurship can shorten to learning curve towards success.
