The Innovation & Entrepreneurship (I&E) Option equips business majors with essential knowledge and skills to think like an entrepreneur and creative innovator. Students will gain fluency in how to communicate, finance, and market a new idea, product, or initiative. Through an innovative curriculum that includes experiential learning and real-life business projects, students will develop an entrepreneurial mindset and the skills necessary to become a successful leader or change-maker across any type of organization or corporate setting. There is no expectation that students will have their own startup ideas or that students will want to become a business founder; the option is for anyone interested in the I&E space. The I&E option is designed to complement a student’s existing business major and will enable students to contribute to innovation and entrepreneurial ecosystems more broadly.
