Have an Adventure

Every year, we take a select group of students on a spring, fall and winter break trip to meet with visionary entrepreneurs, leading executives and successful NC State alumni.

These trips are high-impact activities that provide a life-changing experience for many students, connecting them with a number of thought leaders and many NC State alumni across the country.

Each year, we visit Silicon Valley in the spring and New York City in the fall. This Winter Break, we are leading our first-ever international trip with students to Prague. In addition to these trips, we have several departmental partners that also take entrepreneurship-focused trips. Poole College of Management sponsors a trip abroad every summer and the Albright Entrepreneurs Village sponsors trips to different cities in America every year.

About Our Trips

We aim to make these trips affordable for students, with a total student cost of around $400 per student for an all-inclusive, eye-opening adventure that includes airfare, travel accommodations, food, and room and board. The remainder the of cost is subsidized by NC State Entrepreneurship

Any degree-seeking NC State student in good conduct and academic standing is eligible to apply. Space is limited, so we encourage students to apply early and share why this trip is important to them.

How to Apply

Applications for Fall Break trips are from late July through August, and applications for Spring Break trips are from September through mid-November. Please return to this page during those windows to view live application links.
