Curriculum
Undergraduate students in the College of Business can graduate with a B.A. - General Business, Entrepreneurship Concentration. The 18-hour concentration of junior and senior level courses includes Seminar on Entrepreneurship, Economics of Entrepreneurship and a new course on Market Opportunity Recognition.
We also sponsor the Entrepreneurship Lecture Series that brings high-profile entrepreneurs to the University for lectures and interaction with students across the campus.
We are starting to collaborate with Lamar's College of Engineering and College of Fine Arts & Communication in the Seminar on Entrepreneurship course to engage non-business students and introduce them to entrepreneurship. Our goal is to develop a certificate program and/or minor for non-business majors across campus.
