Changes

The University of Notre Dame is has taken great strides in providing students, current and perspective, with entrepreneurial support. Outfitted with a well-staffed Innovation Park dedicated to nurturing start-up ventures, Notre Dame creates an environment for small companies to grow alongside others. However, the distance between campus and Innovation Park and lack of courses taught there does keep undergraduates away from the resources offered.

<span style="font-size: 12px;">Along with entrepreneurial support, Notre Dame also boasts a Masters in Patent Law program staffed with professors who are more than willing to help protect an idea. Students are well-informed on the availability of this offered course, however, the Masters program does require an extra year at Notre Dame to complete, and therefore is not attractive to all students who may be interested in pursuing other careers outside patent law and entrepreneurship.</span>
