BBA Specialisation in Entrepreneurship & FinTech

Students who choose the Entrepreneurial Business Administration pathway of the BBA degree, and the specialisation in Entrepreneurship & FinTech are often interested in starting their own companies at the end of their studies, especially in the field of digitalisation, marketing & sales. It is a challenging programme and fully packed with business and entrepreneurship projects.

The specialisation modules have a focus on FinTech and include subjects such as 'Introduction to Financial Technology' and 'Introduction to Big Data'. In the Final Year students complete the core of their entrepreneurial bachelor with strategic subjects: 'E-Payments & Crypto-currency' & 'Financial Technology Risk Management'.

FinTech specialisation students in the EBA will complete their work experience, business start-ups and graduation assignment in the world of entrepreneurial financial technology solutions and business!

The Entrepreneurship programme is for students who know that they would like to start and run their own businesses, and who want the support and tools that a Bachelor programme in Entrepreneurship and SME Management can give them. Students will be required to have an international outlook, and speak good English. Students will have ambition, optimism and good general communication skills. They will be imaginative, artistic, conceptual thinkers and have good social networks.

The EBA pathway enables future entrepreneurs to more readily adapt to the changing environment, through the use of their learned skills, competencies and knowledge, thus also maximising the avoidance of company failure. In cases where companies do fail, trained entrepreneurs will be more capable of ensuring continuation than those who are not specifically educated in the field of entrepreneurship.
