The E-Scholars program is a comprehensive entrepreneurial development program incorporating classroom activity and applied experience to enable and inspire a new generation of company and community builders and leaders.
Students develop skills to compete globally by transacting international business.
Students interact with America's best entrepreneurs so they can learn from the best. Students design, implement, and manage a project that becomes the best in the world of its kind. E-Scholars then planned and implemented University of Portland's 16K Entrepreneurs' Challenge, benchmarking MIT's. Classroom learning experiences include guest lectures by the best business leaders in the Northwest. When the E-Scholar plans and implements a new venture as part of the entrepreneurship class, they will be matched with at least one practicing entrepreneur who will serve as an mentor.
