<span id="docs-internal-guid-c597a33a-68a3-fca5-57d9-37d23d8067e1"><span style="font-size: 14.6667px; font-family: Arial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap; background-color: transparent;">The University of Louisville offers formal programs that channel students’ entrepreneurial skills, including an entrepreneurship minor, entrepreneurship MBA, and entrepreneurship PhD. There are a few classes offered that are open to multiple disciplines built around entrepreneurship, as well as a number of departments having a specific entrepreneurship class to their major. New partnerships are being created by the entrepreneurship department with other departments to provide additional collaborative programs in the future, benefiting both disciplines. There are currently a few extra-curricular outlets and activities for students to take part in around entrepreneurship, such as events at FirstBuild (Hackathons, Design Thinking Workshop), Maker Faire, TEDx, however they are not advertised well and tend to only reach a portion of engineering students. The amount of innovation and entrepreneurship in the community is amazing, but the students at the University aren’t as involved/targeted to any extent.</span></span>

The community has a strong fundamental backing in the arts and humanities. The community was build as an industrial town, but never really expanded in that field and has slowly build a great cultural in the arts and humanities. The community is slowly trying to expand their ideas into the sciences with maker spaces such as LVL 1, FirstBuild(1B), and eventually waterstep. The community great uses and to some extents abuses these avenues. Nevertheless, you would assume the University would help, but sadly this isn’t the case. The university doesn’t seem to focus too much on the community, which is a place where it would seem to be a natural connection. The events at the maker spaces are rarely attended by any students to any great extent.</span></span>
