ENTREPRENEURIAL SKILLS blended course
Lund, Sweden

Today we all acknowledge that global society face a number of challenges that need new and creative solutions. We need to learn how to handle uncertainties and unpredictable situations in a productive and progressive way. To cope with these challenges and uncertainties there is a call for more entrepreneurial knowledge and skills.
In this 1,5 ECTS course you will learn about entrepreneurship and how to collaborate in intercultural and multidisciplinary teams.
This course contains four online modules supported by two online lectures. The online modules consist of individual work to be performed before set deadlines. At the end of the course there will be a two-day dynamic "hackathon" on site in Lund, Sweden when the students will work in teams with the task to deliver a solution to a challenge.
Students will receive a scholarship to meet their costs for travel and living. More information on travel arrangements, accommodation etc. will be sent to accepted students.
Students with different backgrounds are encouraged to apply since multidisciplinarity will be an asset.
Students must have at least 30 ECTS in any subject.
Voices from past participants:
“I went into this having a vague understanding of what makes an entrepreneur, so hearing actual stories of entrepreneurs who have both succeeded and failed, as well as those who have just started and those who are more experienced, was very interesting, but also looking at the theory behind why certain styles of entrepreneurship work.”
“I enjoyed that the course is hybrid because we actually got some tools beforehand, which made the whole experience way better because people were synced in how to do the project”.
