About the Technological Entrepreneurship Minor
Successful technological entrepreneurs know how to relate to people with different types of knowledge and experience. One program goal is to teach the art of collaboration, which is key to turning new technology into marketable products and services. This minor provides undergraduates with an understanding of the process for successfully bringing new technology-driven products to market. It is open to non-business majors only, and is specifically designed for students majoring in science, computer science, engineering, or health sciences. Business students interested in Technological Entrepreneurship should explore the Entrepreneurship concentration.
