The TiE Young Entrepreneurs (TYE) Entrepreneurial Education programme will have four-hour sessions over 12 Sundays.
It will give the students a sneak peek into entrepreneurship by exposing them to the processes involved in setting up business ventures.
The TYE programme was formally launched by Telangana IT and Industries Principal Secretary Jayesh Ranjan on Friday.

The programme will have a business plan competition with cash prizes at the regional level.
Winner of the local business plan competition gains an opportunity to win a Grand Prize of $10,000 in the Global Competition.
