Overview

The Entrepreneurship programme offered by University of St Andrews is more than starting a business, it’s about thinking differently, innovating, and leading in a fast-changing world.

The MSc in Entrepreneurship will help you turn ideas into action. Specifically designed for students with a background in non-management disciplines – art, medicine, computer science, or others – you will learn why success is not just about great ideas, but also building and leading strong teams.
