Sophomore Entrepreneurial Experience

Sophomore ENT majors take the highly popular two sequence course, the Sophomore Entrepreneurial Experience, where the students generate ideas for a company, form teams, attend two semesters of entrepreneurship class lectures, start their own micro businesses and operate the companies for the entire academic year. Each team receives $5,000 of venture capital from the University. At year end the students close the companies, liquidate any remaining inventory and repay the University its startup capital. Additionally, students donate part of the generated profit to charity, with the remaining profit paying part of the cost of attending the National CEO Conference the following year. For the 2011-2012 academic year, ENT sophomores will be operating 12 micro businesses.
