Student innovation and entrepreneurship

Pennsylvania State University has been increasing their entrepreneurial efforts. There have been some big changes in regards to minors, programs, organizations, and more.

The entrepreneurship minor offers clusters from College of Engineering, College of Agricultural Sciences, College of Communication, School of Engineering Design, Technology & Professional Programs, and Smeal College of Business.
