Abstract

The Entrepreneurship Program at the University plays a central role in shaping students into entrepreneurs who are ready to compete in the competitive world of work. Through an entrepreneurship curriculum, training, and interdisciplinary collaboration with industry, the university aims to provide a comprehensive understanding that integrates the theoretical and practical aspects of entrepreneurship. Collaborations with business, engineering, art, and design faculties, as well as partnerships with research centers, enrich students' experience in developing micro-enterprises. The ultimate goal is to create a generation of young people who are innovative, risk-taking, and contribute to economic growth through micro-enterprises. Long-term evaluation through alumni participation and case studies provide valuable insights to improve the effectiveness of the entrepreneurship program
