MSc Entrepreneurship (Peter Coates)

  • DeadlineStudy Details:

    MSc 1 year full-time

Course Description

The Peter Coates MSc in Entrepreneurship is a unique programme. Stimulated and inspired by the relationship between the Peter Coates Foundation and Staffordshire University, the Peter Coates MSc in Entrepreneurship gives you the opportunity to develop a start-up idea into a sustainable, scalable and investable business.

The programme has been designed by entrepreneurs, for entrepreneurs and has been developed in association with the Peter Coates Foundation. The Peter Coates Foundation is providing full bursaries for those eligible – applicants must apply separately to the Foundation to access that funding.

Furthermore, at the culmination of the course, individuals or teams of graduates will be able to pitch for up to £200,000 investment in their business idea and the opportunity for ongoing mentoring and start-up support, as part of the Peter Coates Fast Forward programme*.

* Note the Peter Coates Foundation is responsible for the Peter Coates Fast Forward Programme including the allocation of bursaries and potential investments, independent of Staffordshire University and the Peter Coates MSc in Entrepreneurship.

The MSc combines leading edge simulation-based teaching with the entrepreneurial spirit. This isn’t business taught out of a textbook, it’s business building from day one. You don’t need to have a business idea, or even know what industry you need to work in – this can be developed over the duration of the course. Or,  if you do have an existing business idea or start-up, this could be the ideal environment to develop your ideas and realise your ambitions.

Entry Requirements

An honours degree in a related area, typically 2:1 classification. However, experience relevant to your discipline area and potential to work at Masters level will also be considered when offering a place.

Language level must be at least IELTS 6-6.5 or equivalent. However, you’ll be considered if you have a level of fluency to meet the needs of the course.
