The Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with an emphasis in Entrepreneurship and Innovation provides specialized skills and tools for students wishing to found new ventures, work as a part of a founding team, work within an early stage venture, or develop the mindset for innovating within existing organizations. The degree signals to potential employers that the graduate is a capable problem-solver who understands how to build, launch, and grow new initiatives.
The degree focuses not solely on founders and founding processes, but on developing the entrepreneurial mindset more generally – on adaptable thinking as an essential organizational skill; on assessing and managing risk in dynamic, uncertain environments; and on recognizing, evaluating, and implementing new business opportunities.
