Career Focus

This course is for students who have an interest in entrepreneurship and are considering an entrepreneurial career (upon graduation or at some point in the future).  Over the course of the project, students will gain confidence in their ability to write a comprehensive and compelling Business Plan, and to assess the relative strengths and weaknesses of plans they may read or otherwise become involved in downstream.  This course is truly a thorough exercise in “cross-enterprise leadership” where each team member gains a detailed understanding of all of the functional elements required in an excellent plan for a new venture.
