Hello to you there :D I’m Ashlyn, a year 1 student pursing a Diploma in Business and Social Enterprise (BZSE) at Ngee Ann Polytechnic. In this blog, I will share with you about BZSE and my experiences in this course. I hope that through these information and reflections, it would help you find the change-maker in you and it would probably be a stepping stone for you to be part of NP’S BZSE. This blog is not an official website for BZSE but one for me to share my thoughts with you.
If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a tag! ♥

Business and Social Enterprise is offered only by Ngee Ann Polytechnic in 2008. In BZSE, you won't only be equipped with business knowledge, but also in the social aspects.

Learning a variety of business-related modules which are rather similar to most pure Business courses such as Business Management, Principles of Accounting, Business Communications and Human Resource Management, we also learn social modules such as Social Psychology. BZSE believes in experiential learning, letting the students learn hands on outside of the classroom.

From interviewing social enterprises such as ISCOS, O School, Eighteen Chefs and Breakthrough Missions in Introduction to Social Enterprise, managing Gawad Kalinga Global Summit in Project Management, to running a social enterprise situated right inside Ngee Ann Polytechnic - Dialogue in the Dark - as part of your internship, you name it all!

For such a meaningful course, these are my vision and mission for Business and Social Enterprise.


To be part of the change in every individual, family, community, country, region and ultimately, our world.


To nurture and cultivate in every individual the passion for social entrepreneurship, equipping them with practical skills and knowledge, and empowering them to make a difference in the society
