Bachelor of Science in Entrepreneurship (Challenge Based learning)

The BS in Entrepreneurship (Challenge-Based Learning) is an innovative and interdisciplinary program designed to develop Lasallian Entrepreneurs who are innovative, adaptable, and socially responsible. This program prepares students to create, manage, and scale business ventures that address real-world challenges by integrating experiential learning, interdisciplinary collaboration, and a sustainability-driven mindset.

Unlike traditional entrepreneurship programs, this curriculum follows a ladderized learning approach, ensuring that students progressively develop, test, and refine their business ideas throughout the program. By combining design thinking, digital innovation, and ethical leadership, students gain hands-on experience in launching startups while working alongside experts in technology, science, engineering, education, and management.

The program’s challenge-based learning methodology encourages students to engage directly with business and societal issues, equipping them with the critical thinking, problem-solving, and leadership skills needed to thrive in a rapidly changing entrepreneurial landscape. By the time they graduate, students will have operated real business ventures, participated in national and international competitions, and built cross-sector collaborations that contribute to economic growth and sustainable development.
