NBA 5070
Entrepreneurship for Scientists and Engineers

Course information provided by the 2017-2018 Catalog.

Specifically designed for mentored independent study, this course is customized using streaming video, guest speakers, distance learning, and special lectures/tutorial sessions. Work is focused on a single project: students form a startup team and follow a technical business idea of their own choosing through the process of developing and founding a business that can attract venture investors. Learn how high-technology ideas are converted into world-class businesses in venture-backed startup companies as well as in new business development in existing companies. Tutorial sessions with professors apply lessons to the team business plan.


Permission Note Enrollment limited to: Non-Johnson School students only. Priority given to M.Eng., Ph.D., M.S. and undergraduate seniors.

When Offered Fall, spring.
