'''Strategy: Raising Perception On-Campus for I & E Opportunities for All'''
'''<u>4-year plan for Entrepreneurship & Innovation</u>'''
<span style="font-size:13px; font-family:Arial; color:#333333; background-color:#ffffff; font-weight:normal; font-style:normal; font-variant:normal; text-decoration:none; vertical-align:baseline">This will highlight what we already have and what classes should be offered. We will work to identify and create more interdisciplinary, project-based courses on campus. This is the groundwork for the creation of an interdisciplinary, project-focused major in Entrepreneurship & Innovation.</span>

Recent developments include the TAP Building's Rapid Prototyping Lab, the Mckeldin Library's Makerspace, and an initiative on LAUNCH UMD to build more accessible prototyping labs, regardless of level of ability or field of interest.

We are currently adapting the Landscape Canvas, as well as working with key university officials from campus, to build a comprehensive entrepreneurship "map" that is interactive and intuitive. This will break down opportunities and resources on campus by type, topic, stage of your idea, etc.
