'''Entrepreneurship''' within the University of Nevada's College of Business gives students a comprehensive exposure to the particular methods and challenges of starting a business. Instead of deflecting students to general business courses, the Entrepreneurship minor is composed of its own ENT classes, most of which are taught by professors or entrepreneurs-in-residence with substantial business prowess and experience. The Entrepreneurship minor also emphasizes internship experience through its Entrepreneurship Internship class; however, this class currently has no students enrolled.</div><div><br/></div><div>The''' MBA Emphasis on Entrepreneurship '''is offered as a concentration certificate for the University's MBA program; it incorporates the same main ENT classes as the Entrepreneurship minor, but frequently adds in extra projects for graduate students.</div><div><br/></div><div>The '''Nevada Entrepreneurship Club''' (eClub) is funded by the Associated Students of the University of Nevada and the College of Business. It is a central networking hub between entrepreneurially-minded engineers, business students, faculty mentors, representatives of the various business support groups at Nevada, and the local business and entrepreneurship community.<br/></div>
*'''Speakers / Lunch Meetings: '''The eClub meets to listen to guest speakers, usually local operating entrepreneurs, share their advice on starting up and succeeding.
*'''Pack Pitch''': Every semester, the eClub organizes and conducts Pack Pitch, a micro-business-plan competition dedicated to bringing out and vetting innovative business ideas. Participants are judged on a 5-minute pitch; the audience votes down to the final contestants, and a panel of community entrepreneurs and university professors selects the final winner.
