BSc Business Enterprise & Entrepreneurship
About this course
Business enterprise and entrepreneurship is a degree for people who want to understand not just how organisations work but how they are built from scratch, and how new ventures are conceived, launched, and grown. Entrepreneurship is no longer a niche concern: it sits at the heart of how economies innovate and adapt, and the skills it develops, including opportunity recognition, resource mobilisation, creative problem-solving, and resilience under uncertainty, are valued well beyond the startup world. Studying enterprise formally means engaging with the theory and evidence behind what makes ventures succeed or fail, rather than relying only on instinct or anecdote. At Bangor University this three-year programme includes a foundation year, giving you a structured introduction to business and enterprise thinking before the main degree begins. You will study the principles of business strategy, marketing, finance, and management alongside the specific knowledge and skills that entrepreneurial contexts require. The programme includes a sandwich year and a year abroad, giving you the opportunity to combine extended professional experience with international exposure, both of which strengthen your understanding of how enterprise operates in different markets and cultural settings. Work placement is also integrated into the programme. Graduates from entrepreneurship degrees go on to start their own businesses, but they also move into roles in innovation, new product development, consulting, venture capital, business development, and corporate enterprise within established organisations. The skills developed are applicable across virtually every industry. Some graduates take the degree as a foundation for postgraduate study in entrepreneurship, business, or a specific sector, while others use it as a springboard into self-employment or social enterprise from the outset.
