An entrepreneur is commonly thought of as one who starts a small business. At Penn State 杜波依斯, we have a more encompassing vision of an entrepreneur, that includes the person who can work entrepreneurially within an existing organization. 无论是一个小的, 中型, 或者大型企业, organizations can achieve greater success through the creative and innovative thinking of the entrepreneur.
Our students will gain skills essential to succeed in any business setting, including problem-solving, 团队合作, and communication. Our program and our faculty will develop and inspire students to succeed as entrepreneurs, so that they can generate concepts to patent; turn unique ideas into opportunities; launch a successful business; purchase an existing company or franchise; and become great leaders, 经理, 和创新者.
The entrepreneurship minor is intended for students from every major and discipline, building on ideas and innovation.
All students also have the opportunity to work with the North Central PA LaunchBox, powered by Penn State 杜波依斯.
