= Student Innovation and Entrepreneurship =
<p style="text-align: justify">When students think of innovation and entrepreneurship on Oklahoma State University’s campus they will point you to the [http://entrepreneurship.okstate.edu/riata/ <span data-scaytid="1" data-scayt_word="Riata">Riata</span> Center for Entrepreneurship] in the Spears Business Building. They offer a wide range of opportunities for students to learn or engage in entrepreneurship. Unlike most universities, the School of Entrepreneurship is an accredited school. They offer an undergraduate, masters, and PhD in Entrepreneurship along with a minor for both business and non-business majors.&nbsp; This is the place that will guide you in getting the help or information that you need. The School of Entrepreneurship has been open almost 6 years, and student enrollment has been growing every year. The Spears School will be getting a brand new building in 2018, and the School of Entrepreneurship and Riata Center will have the biggest space in the building with over 5000 sq ft. Innovation is embedded and encouraged by each college, which allows students to flourish in their creativity.</p><p style="text-align: justify"></p> Here are some ways that students at Oklahoma State University are engaging in innovation and entrepreneurship.&nbsp;
[http://entrepreneurship.okstate.edu/riata/ Big Idea] – Pitch and Poster Competition
Oklahoma State prides itself on its innovative entrepreneurial programs for both students and faculty. At OSU, there is a program called Innovation Way, which consists of four businesses meant for engaging faculty and students alike to reach their full potential. One of these programs specifically tailored for faculty technology development is Cowboy Technologies, a catalyst for innovation, which aims to prepare start-ups and products for the market as well as connect professors with angel investors. However, developing these start-ups takes years or longer due to the lack of funding and staff at Cowboy Technology- making it a risk to some faculty to invest their time and business. Above Cowboy Technologies is the Center for Innovation and Economic Development as well as Innovation2Enterprise, who deal with the legality of production including government regulations and patent laws. However, OSU faculty are unaware of these programs as they have just recently opened for business. Moreover, staff is hesitant to get involved, as they don’t want to risk their products in a new, risky program. OSU needs to continue to promote the integration of faculty into an environment that promotes innovation and local economic development.&nbsp;
