Welcome to the Enterprising Graduate Attribute Pack!
Being Enterprising helps you to:
Think creatively and come up with new ideas
Solve problems and find solutions
Set goals and work to achieve them
Take initiative and try new ways of doing things
Keep going when things are difficult
Manage money responsibly
These skills are useful for your Future Me Plan, your time at University, and life after University. Being enterprising is not just about starting a business. It is about noticing opportunities, taking action, and being confident in your ideas.
If you have your own business, work as a freelancer, or want to learn how to start one, you can speak to the University’s Careers Service Enterprise Team for support.
Work through the activities to learn more about what being enterprising means, read stories from enterprising students, and find out about the support available at the University to help you develop these skills
