Entrepreneurship Minor

The University offers an online minor in entrepreneurship that is open to students from all majors. It provides students with knowledge and skills to think creatively in their professional and personal lives as well as the necessary knowledge to start a new venture. The minor is excellent preparation for students to learn creative problem-solving and networking skills of value to those who plan to become business owners, develop new businesses in a corporate context, work in the gig economy, or develop side businesses to supplement primary employment.

• The online entrepreneurship minor requires completion of 15 credits for business majors and 18 credits for non-business majors.
• Coursework teaches students to think entrepreneurially in various contexts by taking students through the process of building a new venture from inception to growth. Students gain first-hand experience in developing a valid, defensible business plan that takes into account the financial, legal, ethical, and environmental aspects of creating and managing a new venture.
• Courses are taught by full-time faculty in the Scott College of Business. All courses are offered online. On-campus visits are not required.
