Meet the Enterprise and Entrepreneurial Education Team 

The Enterprise and Entrepreneurial Education team consists of teaching faculty members, staff members, and postgraduate and undergraduate students.  

As a team, we come from a variety of disciplines and international backgrounds. Together we work to creatively and collaboratively support students in their enterprise and entrepreneurial goals.  

We are the first to say it: ‘Enterprise is for everyone!’
