Traditional business programs rarely address the range of problems associated with starting a new business or running a small-growth company. This Entrepreneurship Major offers an integrated curriculum to fill this need.
The Entrepreneurship Major is designed to be career oriented, consisting of courses built upon the business core, but reflecting the goal of providing a course of study tailored to the needs of entrepreneurs.
Many students who wish to become entrepreneurs find that spending a few years working with a company is good preparation and experience for their own ventures to come. We strongly recommend that students interested in the Entrepreneurship major combine it with another major within the college. Dual majors with either Management or Marketing are the most common, but majors or minors in the sciences or technology fields can be very promising.
