== The Minor in Entrepreneurship ==

Over the past several years the University has worked to provide a more encompasing entrepreneurial culture and climate to the campus community. One of the major examples of this push has been the minor in entrepreneurship within the college of arts and sciences. The goal of the minor is to prepare students outside of the undergraduate business program to start ventures with the requisite qualitative and quantitative knowledge. The minor has severa tracks for students to choose and specialize in: Sports, Social, Commercial, Science, Artistic, and recently added Public Health.

'''Resources the Minor Provides:'''

*Business planning and methodologies such as the lean startup 

*A track specific fail - safe environment within the venture planning course ECON 327 

*A required Internship oppurtuntity to help students apply what they've learned and gain experience. 

*An oppurtuntiy to work abroad for the internship requirement (Beijing Program)
