Program Minor


The Innovation and Entrepreneurship minor requires 6 courses. To successfully complete the minor students must have a cumulative GPA of 2.0 in their minor courses. It is recommended that students declare the minor by the end of their sophomore year. It should be noted that the capstone course ENT 265  is required of all minors. A secondary capstone, ENT 266  is offered as an elective for those whose projects are deemed launchable by the program associate director and the capstone instructor.

 

Note:


The elective must be pre-approved by the program associate director.  The elective  course may not count toward a student’s major or any other minor or concentration. ENT 216 Financial Intelligence  , ENT 222 Entrepreneurial Design Thinking  , ENT 245 Social Entrepreneurship   or ENT 266 Entrepreneurship Capstone Project Seminar II  may count as the minor elective. Students may also choose an elective from other Clark academic departments with approval from the program’s associate director.
