Trips
Due to the ongoing concern of COVID-19 and its impact on travel, all travel activities at NC State, including the fall break trip, have been cancelled for the 2020 fall semester. We will announce any changes according to University policy as they are available.
Have an Adventure
Expand your worldview and discover new applications for a big idea. Select groups of students are invited to New York or Silicon Valley to meet with visionary entrepreneurs, leading executives and successful NC State alumni.
There are two trips every year: a fall break trip to New York City and a spring break trip to Silicon Valley. Trips are affordable for students, only $400 all-inclusive.
In addition to these two break trips, we have several departmental partners that also take entrepreneurship-focused trips. Poole College of Management sponsors a trip to Australia, and the Albright Entrepreneurs Village sponsors a trip to a different city in America every year.
Students must be degree-seeking NC State students or equivalent and must be 18 years of age in order to be selected to attend a trip.
