Bachelor of Business Administration - Entrepreneurship
Future-Ready Innovators
Contrary to popular belief, entrepreneurs are not just business owners or business founders, they are business-minded individuals, who hold contrarian beliefs and are capable of building something from nothing. In an article by Forbes, the statistics revealed that 90% of startups (and the entrepreneurs also) fail in their first four years. Though the statistics may seem alarming, it still holds.
Understanding the secret ingredient for entrepreneurial success and what sets successful entrepreneurs apart from the not-so-successful ones is the most important and fundamental aspect of entrepreneurship and a precursor to success.
At Academic City, we believe in, practice and have adopted the experiential method of teaching to give students an inside-outside feel of the Entrepreneurship program.
