Entrepreneurship Graduate Certificate

Entrepreneurship includes much more than just the traditional sole proprietor concept. There's also intrapreneurship (corporate entrepreneurship), social entrepreneurship, and global entrepreneurship. No matter what form your new venture might take, to succeed you need to know how to financially analyze the opportunity, how to secure your competitive advantage, how to market your new venture, and ultimately how to manage your new business.

The entrepreneurship certificate will provide you with those skills and also teach you how to leverage your current technical, creative, and industry knowledge in an entrepreneurial context.

The certificate is made up of 12 semester credits, consisting of three core courses (eight semester credits) and one to two elective courses (four semester credits).
