The Certificate Entrepreneurship was created to meet the needs of students who want to develop and run their own companies or engage in entrepreneurship management practices. Through courses such as Introduction to Entrepreneurship, Financial Planning Business Communications, and Law for the Entrepreneur, students gain insight into what skills are needed to become an Entrepreneur. The program is intended to integrate key requirements of any entrepreneurial effort. It requires a minimum of 22 credit hours and is comprised of seven courses.
The certificate program is designed to prepare students in both operational and skill aspects of the small enterprise. Such preparation will equip students with specific areas of skills or management to either enter an existing small firm or begin their own entrepreneurial enterprise. Courses are designed so that the student, through logical steps, understands the principles unique to small business operation. Successful completion of 22 credits may lead to a certificate of competency in Entrepreneurship. Practical knowledge in small business management, finance, marketing, sales, advertising and supervision are designed to prepare students for entry-level needs.
