Students from around the world become part of a thriving and challenging community at the University of Cambridge and find the city a very dynamic and stimulating place in which to work and learn. In addition to the many academic activities that students are welcome to attend throughout the University, there are also many social and sporting opportunities, details of which are found on the Cambridge University Students Union webpages.

The Bioscience Enterprise programme has close associations with other professional practise MPhil programmes, the biotech business community and biomedical research and healthcare providers in the region. The programme has a close working relationship with Judge Business School and with Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Cambridge MA, USA , in particular with the MIT Entrepreneurship Center and the Biomedical Enterprise programme.


Judge Business School (JBS)

Judge Business School (JBS) is an internationally recognised provider of innovative, intellectually challenging and practical management education. JBS is located adjacent to the Institute of Biotechnology and is the venue for lectures and activities associated with the Management of Technology and Innovation (MOTI) components of the programme.

MOTI course components are shared with other MPhil programmes and therefore the business school provides an important focus for collaborations with students from other disciplines. MBE students have access to and make abundant use of the excellent business library at JBS and are enrolled as members of the Judge Business School Network, an alumni organisation that has a broad, international membership and provides links to the wider enterprise community.

Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT)

The MBE is one of six Cambridge University interdisciplinary Master's degree programmes developed under the auspices of the Professional Practice Programme of the Cambridge-MIT Institute. The programmes are interdisciplinary, combining elements of technology, business and policy and were developed in collaboration with faculty members teaching on similar programmes at MIT. Sharing of best practise between these two world-class institutions is a corner stone of their success.

The MBE was modelled on the Biomedical Enterprise Programme, which provides students with an integrated curriculum focused on the process of product development and commercialisation in the health care industry. For further information visit: http://bep.mit.edu

The MBE programme also benefits from collaboration with staff of the MIT Entrepreneurship Center, who facilitate MIT students, alumni and colleagues access an array of educational programs, networking opportunities, technologies and resources, both at MIT and around the world. Members of the MIT Entrepreneurship Center community form a global network to actively advise and assist each other for mutual benefit, enabling them to set and meet their highest expectations.
