The Team Entrepreneurship program is one of the most innovative entrepreneurship programs and the first one in the Middle East, with support from Tampere University of Applied Sciences in Finland, which developed its original idea a few years ago. The Team Entrepreneurship program attracted broad international interest and reputation due to its reliance on untraditional means of delivery and its ability to produce academic people ready and qualified to engage in entrepreneurship.
The program concentrates heavily on preparing students to become Entrepreneurs, researchers, and coaches in Oman or overseas. Part of what makes this program distinctive is the relevance of the curriculum to the Entrepreneurship profession, through coaching students to become entrepreneurs and a careful balance of applied and theoretical underpinnings.
This program will enable students to create and launch their enterprises by the time they graduate or use their newly acquired skills in corporations in the private sector.
As a result, the framework for studying the TE Method is the team enterprise founded at the beginning of the studies. Through working in the team enterprise, the students learn various aspects of business, such as developing a business idea, “productization,” sales, marketing, financial management of a company, and leadership. The students also constantly learn collaboration and organizational skills, such as team teaching and giving and receiving feedback. The students continuously apply the skills they have learned by implementing customer-based projects through their teams.
