摘要

A global first in 1996, the UCT Genesis Project has seen more than 1700 students from seventeen countries across the world graduate with the competencies essential to becoming successful entrepreneurs. The Genesis Project is the core course and venture creation component of the Postgraduate Diploma in Entrepreneurship (PDE) offered by the Faculty of Commerce at the University of Cape Town (UCT). The PDE is an Honours-level (NQF 8) qualification, with a clear mandate ‘to develop outstanding entrepreneurial leaders who will go on to take their Genesis businesses forward at the end of the year or start their own new venture’. To graduate with a PDE, students are required to complete eight Honours-level courses, as well as their Genesis Project, which is in itself a credit-bearing course.
