Entrepreneurship Degree Plan

The Undergraduate Certificate for Innovation and Entrepreneurship has given me the skills to approach every aspect of life with an innovation-first mindset. The creative ideas I have always had were finally given structure to grow. The product I started in the first course is now in development with a team of engineers at the university and moving forward in ways I never imagined could be possible.

I used to think that I would not benefit from entrepreneurship because I did not want to start a company. The Undergraduate Certificate in Innovation and Entrepreneurship taught me to apply innovative thinking into my daily activities. I learned to seek opportunities amidst problems, develop a SaaS, and validate my solutions through market testing and customer validation. I gained a new perspective thanks to the Certificate.
