Here are our four Strategic Priorities followed by the Key Tactics required to bring this project to life.


1.Host Entrepreneurial for Non-Business School Students to Get More Engagement on Campus

  • Entrepreneurship Events targeting non-business student (ex. Focus week full of events, collaborative projects and competitions to increase engagement)
  • Host events in schools other than the business school to get more campus engagement
  • This could show students in other majors/schools that not all entrepreneurs come from business schools.


This Strategic Priority was developed by UIF Fellow Candidate, Ryan.


2.Increase Entrepreneurial Network

  • Reach out to potential alums and guest speakers
  • Plan the actual event (especially if it'll be cross departments)
  • Allow students to be more entrepreneurial within their class assignments
  • Normalize faculty collaborations

3.Increase Entrepreneurial Spirit on Campus

  • Create series of events, including a focus week throughout the year that is open for the gneral student body
  • Targeting Specific schools and programs by inviting entrepreneurship experience speakers to attend classes in specific fields (like music, theater, film, etc.)
  • Increase the amount of business pitch competitions, so students can go support getting funding and fixing a mentor and start their businesses, so that more students have start-up experiences during they time on college
  • Implement design thinking in classes across different departments
