Minor Entrepreneurship For Society
Pilot program AUAS faculties FBE and FMR (Social Sciences)
‘Entrepreneurship for Society’ (EfS) is a new transdisciplinary minor program on social entrepreneurship at AUAS. Students, teachers, researchers and partners from the field of social entrepreneurship (SE) collaborate, reinforcing a new perspective on the economy by offering students an experience-based introduction in SE. Development of the minor is a three-year project with three experimental aspects: 1) Strengthening connections research – education; 2 ) Transdisciplinary cooperation; 3) Interdepartmental organization.
The development of the minor EfS is an experimental project in three phases: 1) Program design (2019). This included pedagogical and didactical principles; involvement of stakeholders; and course design. 2) Two experimental runs (2020). From February 2020-January 2021, the program was run in two consecutive semesters. 3) Further development (2021). After a semester focused on reflection and redesign, the minor is run again from September 2021, followed by final evaluation.
