All businesses begin with the ideas of entrepreneurs.
Entrepreneurs identify and explore opportunities, research the resulting ideas, locate and organize resources, and begin to turn the ideas into reality. Entrepreneurship 12 helps students to gain an understanding of the entrepreneurial spirit in the context of starting a small business and to learn the skills necessary to effectively carry out entrepreneurial activity. Within a secure and supportive environment, student teams in Entrepreneurship 12 plan, research, develop, and implement venture plans that link technical and managerial resources and innovation. The course offers students opportunities to develop a business knowledge base, employability skills, and positive attitudes toward lifelong learning. In Management Innovation 12, students learn that as ventures grow, entrepreneurs often require some management organization to keep the business running.
