COURSES

Intro to Tech Entrepreneurship 

You don’t need an idea for a company, you don’t need a team - you just need to be interested in using your skills to solve problems with innovative solutions. The class will include guest speakers who will talk about their experiences as entrepreneurs or in a startup, case studies, and workshops. Each session will help students begin to understand how they can identify problems, create solutions, build products and start companies. We will then consider the basic building blocks for starting a company, and lead you to the resources you need should you choose to pursue entrepreneurship. Offered Fall and Spring Semesters.
