Mercy College

What you'll study

This programme covers broad business foundations alongside specialist entrepreneurship modules. Core subjects typically include accounting, finance, marketing, organisational behaviour, business law and economics to give you a well-rounded business background. Entrepreneurship-focused modules explore opportunity recognition, business model development, new venture financing, innovation management, social entrepreneurship and family business studies.

Learning is structured around a mix of lectures, case studies, group projects and applied work. Many students complete a capstone project or business plan in which they research a market, develop a go-to-market strategy and present a viable venture proposition. Opportunities for internships and industry projects allow you to apply classroom learning in real-world settings.
