Other informations:

    • The core course covers market research, product design, business models, financial planning, marketing strategies, and more.

    • There are two different “categories” one can apply to, which makes what one does outside of these classes different.

      • One is for those who have already started their own business and wish to expand upon it; the other is for those who have not started their business and wish to start one.

    • But generally, students will develop and implement their business alongside one-on-one support from successful entrepreneur/industry experts.
