JOB: 2019 The MEST Graduate-Level Entrepreneurial Training in Business, Communications and Software Development Training Program (Fully Funded)

Deadline: February 8, 2019

MEST offers a fully sponsored 12-month graduate-level entrepreneurial training in business, communications and software development, including extensive hands-on project work, culminating in a final pitch and the chance to receive seed funding.

The year-long training programme provides Entrepreneurs-in-Training (EITs) with MBA-level entrepreneurship training in business, software development and communications.

While diving deep into fundamental business and technology concepts, EITs complete 3 Capstones per year – they form teams, come up with an idea, build and validate a product, attain customers and pitch the idea in front of our board.

The year culminates in a final exam in the form of an investor pitch, after which some companies will receive seed funding and enter the MEST Incubator.

Application Requirements

• We’re looking for business oriented applicants who are interested in learning how to start a software company.
• While it’s not a requirement to have previous coding experience, a strong interest in learning about technology is a must.
• We’ve designed the MEST programme to give you the business and technical skills you’ll need to start a successful company.

Successful applications have the following:

• A deep passion for starting a software company
• Entrepreneurial or corporate work experience
• A degree from a top University or Technical College (or equivalent experience).

Fully funded program

The MEST program is fully funded, including free tuition, room and board, 3 meals per day and a small monthly stipend.
