Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Minor

Chairperson: Mark Barratt, Ph.D.
Department of Management website

Business minors are not available to students in the College of Business Administration.

The Innovation and Entrepreneurship minor is an applied, experiential program where students learn to identify opportunities, harness resources and create value within environments of uncertainty, unmet need or opportunities for change. Graduates are therefore prepared to understand the big picture of the corporations that employ them or for careers within professional service firms, investment firms or for venture creation or self-employment in a variety of industries including social ventures and non-profits.

For more information, contact Professor John S. Peterson.
