Introduction to the Entrepreneurship Hub (Ent. Hub-HSS)

The Entrepreneurship Hub of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences (HSS) aims to explore opportunities for social sciences undergraduates and graduates, encouraging them to utilize their social science imagination to shape their livelihoods and achieve success in the global society. The Hub is a dynamic and collaborative space designed to empower students to discover, develop, and excel in entrepreneurial activities by combining social science imagination, theoretical knowledge, and the everyday socio-economic realities of life. It is dedicated to guiding students in refining their innate talents and acquired skills. At the Hub, we believe that every student has the potential to create meaningful change through entrepreneurship—not just by launching businesses but by embracing innovation, solving real-world challenges, and leaving a lasting legacy.
