Education at its core is about inspiring students. Itโ€™s about giving them a once-in-a-lifetime experience that gives them the ability to shape their dreams, the energy to study, and the courage to continue - especially when it comes to building their own businesses. Global School for Entrepreneurship is the solution to the following questions: How do we provide a platform for students who have grown disenchanted from traditional education? What do the students do when they realize that the mere existence of a degree doesnโ€™t guarantee job security? How do we help students prepare themselves for an ever-changing future? Here at Global School for Entrepreneurship, we employ entrepreneurship as an answer to the aforementioned questions. That in order to forge your own destiny and make meaningful contributions to society, you must be equipped with the proper tools. With fully accredited, unconventional bachelorโ€™s and masterโ€™s programs of applied science, as well the pre-master, Global School for Entrepreneurship actualizes the statement โ€œBecome an Entrepreneur By Being One.โ€ At Global School for Entrepreneurship, we enable students to combine travel, study, and work in some of the most vibrant cities in the world. It is in these locations that students are connected to start-ups, local students and inspiring established organizations. Once their academic journey is complete the students will not only have earned their degree but will also have built a venture and gained global experience. And it is through this experience that our students will achieve greatness, grow from โ€˜maybeโ€™ to โ€˜mastery,โ€™ and continue to RISE.

Erasmus Centre for Entrepreneurship is the leading centre for entrepreneurship in Europe. Fueled by our belief that entrepreneurship is the primary driver for innovation, we strive to embed entrepreneurship in the DNA of people by applying the knowledge and network of Erasmus University Rotterdam, a university founded by entrepreneurs more than 100 years ago. With our four full professors and 35+ academic trainers on entrepreneurship, we offer actionable executive entrepreneurship training and innovation programmes to corporates, and well as to starting entrepreneurs. Every year we teach 3.000 students the foundation of entrepreneurship. We do this at our own entrepreneurial learning environment of 10,000 m2 in the Rotterdam Science Tower, also the home base for our community consisting of 100+ innovative companies. We have a good understanding of the successful start and growth factors of companies; we monitor and study fast growing companies and present the results in the ScaleUp Dashboard.
