Undergraduate Program
BBA with a Major in Entrepreneurship


Bachelor of Business Administration with a Major in Entrepreneurship

The Entrepreneurship major targets students interested in starting their own organization or contributing to the success of a start-up organization. Through classroom and community experiences, students will be able to identify viable career options in entrepreneurship, expand their knowledge of the process, and develop their own entrepreneurial management skills.

The Entrepreneurship major provides the student with the necessary skills and knowledge to research, plan and prepare a viable business proposal for the development of a new establishment. The program tailors traditional business concepts to accent the needs of the entrepreneur as the CEO.

The emphasis on reliance on one’s self as the controller of one’s destiny is stressed. The student will learn about intelligent risk-taking with a preparation for failures and how to recover from those failures. Potential entrepreneurs will learn that for their venture to succeed they must have passion, dedication, and flexibility.

Courses taught in the School of Management and Business contain a content-relevant ethics component.
