<span style="font-size:larger;"><span style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif;">Education geared toward entrepreneurial thinking encourages students at RPI to think in different ways, to come up with new ideas to solve problems and to enter on-campus competitions such as the Change the World Challenge, the Class of ’51 Entrepreneurial Fund, the Elevator Pitch Competition, and the RPI Business Plan Competition.&nbsp; These programs often provide the spark which gives students the entrepreneurial bug and encourages them to continue pursuing their ideas.</span></span>
