Although SMU has many resources to foster innovation and entrepreneurship, most programs are run out of separate schools and see/ offer very little crossover between students in other schools. Some programs, such as those run through Big Ideas, are campus wide initiatives, but they struggle to recruit students due to fragmentation throughout the schools. In many ways, the I&E resources all fight for the same students. There needs to be a way for students to better connect to the existing programs.
Additionally, there are gaps seen in the survey of campus resources.
