Entrepreneurship and Small Business Management Minor
The course work in the minor will help prepare you for a successful
entrepreneurial career and you can work directly with entrepreneurs
at the Jake Jabs Center for Entrepreneurship for the New West when you take
"The Entrepreneurial Experience."
The
Entrepreneurship minor is open to ALL MSU students interested
in gaining practical management skills. In the class,MGMT
463/BMGT 463 - The Entrepreneurial Experience, students are paired with a
local company to learn first-hand which skills are needed to solve
business issues dealing with management, marketing and finance.
This class places students in the position of consultants to start-up
companies while they work in a small team with other students and
the members of the firm to which they are assigned.
While MGMT 463/BMGT 463 is a required course for the Entrepreneurship and Small Business Management minor, it is an invaluable experience to all students interested in entrepreneurial ventures. Students deepen their understanding of starting a business while attaining essential on-the-job experience. In the past, students have worked on projects dealing with product-value analysis, market research and venture capital funding. The skills learned through this course at the Jake Jabs Center for Entrepreneurship are important tools that will help each student to stand out to prospective employers and to begin their own business ventures. We encourage students from all colleges at MSU to enroll in the Entrepreneurship and Small Business Management Minor or to take "The Entrepreneurial Experience." But don't just take our word for it, your peers have had a lot to say.
