The Postgraduate Diploma in Commerce (PGDipCom) is a two-semester paper-based programme designed for graduates seeking to build on their undergraduate degree and enhance their career prospects. Unlike the Bachelor of Commerce with Honours (BCom(Hons)) degree, it does not require students to write a dissertation. The PGDipCom may be awarded with distinction or credit.
Why study Entrepreneurship?
Gain business skills. Grow your entrepreneurial behaviour. Nurture your can-do spirit and creative mindset. Be your own boss! Generate value and share it with the world. You can apply your entrepreneurial behaviour to start a business, make a small business large, or make an organisation of any size more productive.
Career opportunities
Realise your ideas to create value in the real world by:
founding your own startup
working for a rapidly growing startup in Aotearoa New Zealand or overseas
growing innovative iwi organisations
providing innovation-focused services in job roles that do not yet exist
joining an innovation-focused team working in any sized organisation or any sector of the economy, including for-profit, non-profit and public sectors
Enterprises that develop new products and services across every sector of the economy require the skills of critically evaluating and communicating value principles and new ideas. Wherever “business as usual” is not producing good enough results, entrepreneurial thinking is needed and is in hot demand
