Majors in Entrepreneurship
Undergraduate Majors
Business Administration with Concentration in Entrepreneurship
The entrepreneurship concentration is cross disciplinary, focusing on the challenges of establishing and managing new and growing ventures. The business environment and management skills required for success in new ventures are significantly different from those in established, mature organizations. The entrepreneurship concentration is relevant to students preparing to work in a variety of entrepreneurial environments.
Graduate Majors
The Technology Entrepreneurship and Commercialization curriculum provides graduate students from management and other disciplines across campus the opportunity to engage in all stages of a company’s formation and growth. We offer two tracks: Technology Entrepreneurship and Commercialization (TEC) and Entrepreneurship (ENTR). Due to the collaborative nature of the TEC courses, the majority of the classes are held on NC State’s Main Campus.
