Ngee Ann Polytechnic will be infusing entrepreneurship into its curricula for all student.
Ngee Ann Polytechnic principal Clarence Ti said its push to support such talent is part of an effort to shift away from pure academic achievement and to create “multiple peaks of success”.
NP launched the free Entrepreneurship First Steps course for younger students in April to provide them with the know-how and skills to bring their ideas to life.
The polytechnic will also introduce an entrepreneurship programme open to all its students from any discipline in the new academic year starting April 2021. The topics will cater to students at varying levels of entrepreneurship and cover skills like starting a side hustle, e-commerce, accelerator programmes and incubation.
In addition, almost all first-year students will also take a revamped foundational module in innovation and entrepreneurship starting April next year.
