Enterprise and entrepreneurship is recognised as being vital to the development of a modern economy, both in terms of new business start up or as part of managing and growing existing organisations. In this regard enterprise and entrepreneurship is as important for large as well as small organisations, operating in both the public and private sectors. This module will introduce the conceptual underpinning necessary to understand the nature of enterprise and entrepreneurship, and will also help develop vital entrepreneurial skills, behaviours and practices necessary for success. This module will set out to study the evolution, current practice, impact and future potential of entrepreneurial activity both in the UK and on the wider international stage. In studying these areas this module is designed to bridge the potential gap between theory and practice regarding entrepreneurship in a range of contexts.
