Why did you apply for MSc in Entrepreneurship?
I have always had a dream of starting my own company, and I saw from the structure of the programme that it was very hands-on. Moreover, it looked like I can combine the knowledge I have gained from my bachelor into the master in a good way. I think it has worked well so far!
Why is the programme relevant for a computer scientist?
In computer science you learn how to build a product, while in entrepreneurship you learn about how to go from product to business. For instance in regards to how to make money, marketing and how to get the product to the market.
Are you using knowledge from your bachelor in the master programme?
From my bachelor I learned everything from UX design to user interface, programming and really most of what is needed to create prototypes and products. You get good use of these skills in entrepreneurship. Currently we are at STARTUPLAB where we are developing our product, and get to use this knowledge every day.
What are you working on at STARTUPLAB?
We have an open assignment this semester, which is to develop a company. It involves both business development, programming, marketing and finding customers. It is great that we are tied to an actual start-up environment. Parallel to this, we have courses at the university which provides training in what we practice.
