[http://asu.edu Arizona State University] has a slew of impressive innovation and entrepreneurship opportunities with which students may engage themselves. &nbsp;With over 7 300 majors, across 5 15 different schools, several certficates, multiple campuses, and satalite research and innovation centers geared towards pushing students towards entrepreneurship, ASU has made it a priority to harness the ideas and talents of its students. &nbsp;The central hub for entrepreneurship at Arizona State University is located online through the&nbsp;[http://entrepreneurship.asu.edu/ Office of Knowledge Enterprise Development][https://entrepreneurship.asu.edu/ &nbsp;Entrepreneurship & Innovation], as well as on campus resources such as Changemaker Central and the Startup Village. &nbsp;These offices span the resources available on the ASU Tempe, Polytechnic, and SkySong campuses (those most involved with entrepreneurship and technological innovation) as well as other satalite research institutions affiliated with ASU. &nbsp;Information contained on the Office of Knowledge Enterprise Development Entrepreneurship & Innovation website includes:
*Research locations and stragies on campus&nbsp;
*Resources and funding oppertinities for entreprenuers
<br/>With the new focus of ASU's entrepreneurship programming, the SkySong campus houses the&nbsp;[http://studentventures.asu.edu/ Edson Student Entrepreneur Initiative], a program which produces approximately 20 student-led startups each year. &nbsp;Additional resources such as Techshop in Chandler, AZ, have transformed the way students interact with their ideas. Students can now conceputalize somthing something and then take it to the production phase simply by seeking out the tools and knowledge to make it happen. AdditinoallyAdditionally, the creation and remodeling of the Startup Labs have added to the number of resources that students have at their disposal to make and tinker with.&nbsp;
Though there appears to be a wealth of opportunities and resources available to students at ASU, there still needs to be a cultural evolution of the student body to become culturally motivated to utilze all of the resources available. This is primairly due to the lack of a place where students can come in and share ideas, brainstorming them into fruition. Students need to be able to come into a space with an idea and leave with the confidence that they can then head over to Techshop or the Startup labs able to bring it into reality.&nbsp;
