• Develop the management skills required to identify and launch new business ventures around innovative products, services and technologies.
• Develop an understanding of the concepts and activities associated with entrepreneurship and innovation.
• Understand the financial aspects of an entrepreneurial venture from start-up to “harvest”.
• Discover their individual “entrepreneurial spirit” through experiential learning in interdisciplinary classes and the College’s Venture Lab.
