About Entrepreneurial Mindset Program:

At Udhyam we believe in the 3 key learning principles namely Student Autonomy, Learning by Doing and Real world experience . What better way to build entrepreneurial mindsets than trying real world innovation projects hands-on?

Our Entrepreneurial Mindset Development program will be rolled out across 3 districts in Tamil Nadu in the coming year. The program is focused on enabling the development of Entrepreneurial Mindsets of students through a curriculum which is experiential and project-based. The program will be integrated into the school timetables and enabled through teachers within each school. Over the course of this project-based curriculum, the students will work in teams, receive inputs for identifying societal problems that they would like to solve, and with a support system develop their ideas into viable prototype solutions.

To deepen our impact, we are designing a number of online and offline features for the program to improve content delivery and deepen implementation quality.
