Additional Information

Based on the vision of the School of Business, Public Policy and Social Entrepreneurship (SBPPSE) and appreciating the growing importance of social entrepreneurship, the school has launched a two-year (full time) MA programme in Social Entrepreneurship. SBPPSE’s MBA programme integrates elements of public policy and social entrepreneurship in the mainstream business curriculum. It was thought appropriate to offer another programme, which will be linked to the MBA programme, but at the same time, focus exclusively on social entrepreneurship. The students of the MA Social Entrepreneurship, while in their first year will be exposed to all the core courses of the MBA first year, the second year of the MASE programme will be linked to the activities of Incubation Centre for Social Entrepreneurship & Innovation which has been established at AUD. This programme will help students gain a better understanding of the world around them, appreciate the issues and challenges faced by the society, and find creative solutions to address these. The target audience for this programme will be: Students who seek to build a career in the emerging area of social entrepreneurship. Social entrepreneurs who seek to enhance their knowledge about business management. Professionals working in the development sector / government. The programme aims to build and enhance core business skills, raise consciousness about socio-political and environmental issues, and promote creative thinking, social innovation, and entrepreneurial approaches to problem solving.
