The focus is on learning by doing: in interdisciplinary teams, participants develop innovative solutions with social and entrepreneurial relevance using design thinking and lean startup methods. The program is complemented by pitch training, feedback from experienced entrepreneurs and experts and a wide range of networking opportunities.
The bootcamp is aimed at committed students from all disciplines and Munich universities. Prior knowledge is not required. The decisive factors for acceptance are motivation, openness and the willingness to work intensively in a team for six days. Participation is free of charge and all participants receive a certificate from Munich University of Applied Sciences and the SCE at the end; recognition as an extracurricular commitment is possible depending on the faculty.
