Entrepreneurship
Entrepreneurship is a major aspect of our economy that offers many employment opportunities as well as income and wealth accumulation for diverse groups within our population. The MS in Entrepreneurship is designed to meet the needs of students who have varied or limited backgrounds in entrepreneurial ventures, are part of family businesses, or are interested in starting or growing their own businesses when they graduate. Students in the program are required to take a minimum of 30 credits. In contrast, the MBA in Entrepreneurship requires a broader spectrum of business courses. All MS students take the 5 required courses, as well as choose 5 electives in the management, human resources management, marketing, finance, law and computer information systems.
Preliminary courses (6 credits)
Students with appropriate background will be able to reduce the number of required credits in preliminary courses.
