ENTP 6810 - Venture Foundations

The purpose of this five-week course is to teach you the foundation skills you will need to create a valuable business idea. The course accomplishes this task by engaging students on three levels. First, the course presents a high-level overview of the entrepreneurial system: What it is, how it works, and how, when and where students can plug in to it. Second, the course takes a hands-on approach using ideas from the class to start students on the road to learning how to think like entrepreneurs. Third, students learn networking skills, and how to assemble the teams they need to create and launch businesses.
