A major driver within QMU is the development and sustainability of a changing culture that supports the capacity of our staff and students to be entrepreneurial in a variety of contexts. QMU is playing a leading role in challenging the contours of entrepreneurship and the evolution of inspiring entrepreneurs from business, creative, social and service innovation perspectives.
What is distinctive about QMUs approach is our rootedness in the intersection of conventional disciplinary groupings to create innovative approaches to contemporary societal challenges and public discourse and the identification of entrepreneurial opportunities both locally and internationally. This activity supports the exchange of knowledge into business solutions, and we are making significant impact in addressing social, economic, cultural and health issues.
Through alignment of strategy, we are working to embed enterprise and employability as a core component of academic provision at all levels by: increasing start up activity; supporting opportunities for developing and understanding enterprise skills both within QMU and externally, including placements, internships and participation in enterprise competitions; presenting a single, coherent message about enterprise to all our stakeholders.
Entrepreneurship and the Curriculum
At QMU both the undergraduate and postgraduate curriculum combines theory and practice, providing students with the opportunity to think up great ideas, turn them into business plans, and deliver on new technologies, products, and services.
The photographs used in this exhibition formed part of a Photography Practice Module project.
Within QMU, our commitment to entrepreneurship prepares students for a variety of career and life experiences. Being an entrepreneur may mean starting your own business, or it may mean working in an existing business. The key is you learn to think like an entrepreneur. QMU programmes are designed to support students to identify and analyse new
opportunities, to think creatively, and to be action oriented in order to seize opportunities that add real value to their employability. These skills are important in all types of organisations, from small start-ups to large corporate settings to large public sector organisations like the NHS.
