In recent years thousands of start-up companies and entrepreneurial ventures have entered the economy.
Most job creation comes from the small, private business sector.
Though self-employment is a viable career alternative for many people today, they need relevant education and training to be successful. Wright State University plans to provide that education for the ever-increasing number of entrepreneurs starting and growing their own businesses. The center hopes to provide new course offerings in entrepreneurship that could lead to a major, minor, or concentration in the area. How entrepreneurship would best fit into the curriculum is still being determined. Premus also hopes to structure the program to work closely with the business community.
